Pros
You know your work schedule, M-F, every holiday and weekends off. TV & Internet are essentially free, just pay for the equipment.
Cons
So many things out of your control. Number of calls you can take are restricted even though you get a ton of pollution on your phone, i.e. non sales calls. You literally only take the order. Someone else builds the account and the services on the account. Someone else determines if it's serviceable or not. Another person does the install. So many people can affect the order. Someone else leaving off a service or selecting the wrong service, or not scheduling a port of phone numbers, or turning off the customers services early, or the tech not showing for an installation or even going to the install without a modem or cable tv box. It's not hard to get someone to sign up for service...it's just hard to get them service. So many customers call in that we can't provide service to and we will know it in the first minute of the call, yet we are still expected to spend 10+ minutes or so going through our consultative sales flow sheet, uncovering their needs and still getting them to sign, getting their hopes up, sending the order for a site survey which can take up to 7 business days to get a result on and then telling them, sorry, we're not able to provide you with service. This is the first company i've worked for where you don't get a pay raise after a year. Their quota relief for time off is a joke. You're allowed to submit for only half the time you can take off for quota relief. Also, it's clear who are the good supervisors and who are the "how much longer will they have their job" supervisors. You can only hope to get placed on a supervisors team that actually does their job and does it well.
