Pros
- easy - management doesn’t pay attention to what you do on your computer if you’re not busy - can work out on Pilates equipment at lunch time & take inexpensive Pilates classes offered throughout the day on your lunch
Kontras
- sitting in a cubicle for 8 hours - not much around the area to keep you occupied at lunch time or breaks - was promised a much higher “salary after commissions” than achievable. I was one of very few who hit their quota, and still wasn’t making nearly as much as was promised. - not very understanding of personal issues outside of work - if short staffed, will drop lunch down to 30 minutes without notice - not a real sales position - everything is pretty much based on luck. People call in to buy equipment which they are already sold on. The only “sales” part is trying to upsell them, but even then you’re only making 0.55% off each sale. - management is salary and therefore leaves whenever they feel like, aka not always available for assistance - extremely unorganized
