learn sales skills, but extremely stressful
Pros
Casual Work environment, there are contests and games to win money almost every day, monthly incentives for prizes. There is potential to make good money but you have to be better than the day before every single day. Some people make a few thousand each month very easily. Sales training is really amazing, I never fully realized my sales selling skills until this job.
Cons
STRESS. It is SO STRESSFUL. In one month I was on three different businesses with four different schedules and four different managers. You have a timer on everything you do... your breaks, lunch, availability, call talk time, follow up, bathroom, etc. Breaks can get denied if there are more than a few calls on hold. It is one of those jobs that your good days are a pat on the back and your bad days the end of the world. There is a constant fear that ONE call will get you fired or make your pay a few hundred dollars less. ANOTHER HUGE ONE IS THE SCHEDULE: Your schedule can change at the drop of a hat. Expect long nights for the first few months you are hired. Most new people have a 2-11 or 3-12 schedule which is really exhausting after a few months. Its hard to get to bed at 2am most nights and still have a work/life balance. They say after 90 days you can apply for a new schedule but it doesn't work out to a day job, in some ways it turns worse.
