Pros

Great Pay. Great Benefits. Great break and lunch rooms. Great Co-Workers.

Cons

Well with the above you would think it would all be Pros right? Well just as most have said you're micro managed to no end. You will also take calls from people who are upset 95% of the time due to their phone service. From the point you answer the phone to the point you end the call you will either be yelled at by the customer for things out of your control. You will have the customer not listen to you then get angry because you can't resolve the issue. Then comes trying to escalate the call to a Supervisor or Lead, good luck this will result in a longer wait for the customer and you to be abused by the customer as they are most likely busy trying to defuse another situation. Overall the job will be placed to you as a help desk position when in reality you're there to hold the customers hand through using their device. Now you would think this doesn't sound bad right? No I mean if they call because they have no clue how to add a contact to their phone from being able to beat a level on a game you have to help them with it. It doesn't matter if they are asking you for assistance in adding every single contact to their phone you are required to help them. You will only have about 5% of issues that you can resolve since most are related to the device itself or the area they live in to be honest.

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.
