Pros

They pay you, has benifits, can get bonus on sales. low overwatch, your left to do your job, or really whatever you want.

Cons

this company, the reps are lazy, the management is a joke, the turnover rate for customers is astronomical, i am told that every call is a sales call. i am supposed to have a 5% close rate for product sales on all calls taken. the pricing is not competitive, they will sabotage their own offers. systems don't work, many angry customers (understandably). the products you are selling are supposed to be Internet services, however since we often have state wide outages i cant even trust my products to work enough to sell them, they have a 3 month turnover and if someone calls to cancel the services before then you don't get paid. Often times a sale will mysteriously change to a different representatives name, and all you will get is "we are looking into it". you have no support if you have a question or issue. your expected to be on the phone while scheduled (which is understandable) and do any requested over time with little to no warning (which is not). the hours constantly change, often when daylight savings changes the times (my state doesn't do this) they use it as an excuse to close earlier, even if people are changing the clocks to be later. no accountability for management, if you mess up because they didn't tell you some critical bit of information, its on your head.

Pros

Great hourly thanks to Verizon! Great commission pay out for top performers again thanks to an existing contract from before we switched to frontier. Steady work ....for now.

Cons

If you were hired after 7-1-10 I'm sorry for you I don't think it's right what they pay you guys. All the veterans (old VZ reps) seem to get treated worse and worse as time goes on.... The company is mass hiring folks at extremely low rates, and I'm sorry but if you hire people at a low rate your gonna get a lower quality of people. I'm tiered of fixing customers accounts after the new unqualified folks screw their accounts up. I could go on for hours on the cons but you catch my drift. I almost feel i will be relieved when our existing contract is up because it will be all over. If your considering working here....don't
