Pros: Winning together, not commission-based, so you're not fighting each other for sales. Bonuses are based on monthly budgets. Staff discounts were a blessing. Met a lot of long-term friends working here.

Cons: Nothing much; it’s a sales job. Promotions and pricing are decided by telecom providers. Budgets don’t line up well with promotional periods, which makes budgets sometimes harder to hit.

Great environment, bad management, and salary

Mobile Specialist • Current Employee

Pros: Employee discounts are a great pro.

Cons: Terrible pay. They pay about $.50 more than minimum wage, even though I have worked for them for 4 years. Rarely get hours as a part-time employee. Lots of drama.
