Pros

Offers work-at-home position that preys primarily on underprivileged african-american single mothers.

Cons

Do not honor their commitments. Benefits after 60 days as promised? Nope, you have to kick and scream to get them (received my benefits after 122 days). Bi-yearly review as pitched in the interview process? Nope, after 2 months working for the company they informed us that it will now be yearly reviews, thus your opportunity for raises is prolonged. Human Resources department treats you like a nuisance when you contact them. Training is poorly organized; multiple trainers with conflicting protocols, yet the employee is reprimanded if they follow as instructed from previous trainer or supervisor. It is a low paying job but that is not really the gripe; you have to buy all of your own equipment that matches Asurion's specifications (in my case, $869 computer and monitor, plantronics phone $69, internet and phone service at $126 monthly plus a one time installation fee of $189). Also you will need additional software and virus protection $99/year. Their technical support team will not assist you with computer issues and accept zero responsibility... I just paid $265 to fix my computer to go back to work. When your net paycheck is $538, you simply cannot afford work here long term. I do not recommend this company to anyone.

Pros

The job does pay well and does give you commission and mileage back. It’s 22.05 an hour and .77 cents per mile ( you will drive a lot and your mileage check will probably be the same as your weekly check )

Cons

The job is hyper focused on pushing people to sell VHDP or HTP (VHDP Verizon Home Device Protection ), ( Home Tech Protection ). The job doesn’t really care for the financial situation of a client and will say “ well you could have told them even though they are on a fixed income, they can still get the plan and talk to their ISP about financial hardship “ the staffing is sometimes very scarce and is also very lack of consideration for driving far off with no help if you get stuck. If you happen to have a vehicle issue ( which you will ) you have 7 days to get it back up in running before you get either written up or let go. I did enjoy working for this company, but it was mentally taxing and always was about getting every dollar out the customer even though they already paid for the visit for you to come out, and the phone replacement which they have to pay for monthly. Once you have worked for the company for atleast 90 days you will get a tablet and they will make you start doing Verizon consultation about the customers WiFi and try to sell them these 90 dollar WiFi just so they can make the most money possible. It’s all just give me money even though you already gave me money
