Pros

* I worked on the PPX (pay per experience - in my case paid per chat) model -Paid well for sessions and sales if you hit metrics -Easy to succeed with general metrics if you take direction well -Coaches are great (for the most part)

Cons

At the beginning of this job in 2019 when I started this position, I would have said nothing. It was wonderful. Then, sales became more and more important every month. By the time I left, our supervisor said things like, "do not take no for an answer." We were required to rebuttal the customer 3 times or more, even if their reasoning was that they couldn't afford it. If the customer was upset and angry that we were bringing it up, they advised us to still circle back to the sale in the end. Our customers were coming to us for technical support because their device or service was not working, and Asurion was having us pester them about buying insurance. I had no issue offering or rebutting with eligible customers, but I did not appreciate the negativity that grew from the aggressive sales approach they adopted. People who had wonderful metrics outside of sales were being fired, and I was headed that way. Customers are assigned at random, and I wasn't willing to have someone sign up for something they didn't really want or need just to satisfy Asurion. We were paid well for those sales, and that was great, but by the end, it just felt... scummy.

Pros

Training provided, tools and knowledge that help in various aspects, great intro to tech support or engineering.

Cons

Either you are overworked because the store is understaffed or not enough hours because too many part time people. Pay remains low even after years of experience, conditions for drivers doing mobile repairs can be sketchy, drivers during summer can get really hard, busy days can lead to 9-10 hours driving, a big push to be more sales focuses instead of tech repair focused. If there is already a manager; there’s not really a path to go from technician to manager or technician to corporate opportunities.
