Pros
If you're a halfway decent salesman you really can make pretty good money. And fairly easily when all is said and done...
Cons
-If you want to work with some of the shadiest people you've ever met, then this is definitely the job for you. You'll constantly be questioning the moral fabric of everyone around you, and by extension eventually your own. But not out loud of course because then you'll find your job threatened until you're intimidated into keeping your mouth shut. -You're constantly pressured into sellling products that customers dont really want and are fairly mediocre anyway. -You have to participate in the company's strategy of taking advantage of customers who don't realize the difference between an indirect retailer and a corporate verizon. So they assume they would be getting the same deal either way when actually you're charging them more, in some cases significantly, for the same phone they could get at a corporate verizon. -In the almost complete absence of a managerial structure in the store level, space is made for whoever's ego happens to be throbbing the hardest that day to bark out orders about how they happen to think things should be done. Despite the fact that they have no authority whatsoever. -The company will charge YOU if something in the store goes missing. Wether they can prove you took it or not. So if you have a coworker whos stealing accesories then too bad, everyone on shift gets to split that cost. Honestly I dont know if thats even legal cause it sure seems like it shouldnt be. -Constantly deal with obnoxious, arrogant, and rude customers who wont hesitate to take their day out on you.
