Pros

The benefits are good, you get a lot vacation time but you WILL work while you are on vacation.

Cons

I'm simply not allowed to disconnect AT ALL. I'm expected to report my sales repeatedly throughout the day to my superiors no matter if I'm working or not. I'm exhausted, frustrated, and demoralized. I'm one of the high performers but yet they manage to make me feel like a failure daily. There's always SOMETHING you are doing wrong, from requesting a professional install for an elderly person to not getting your rep observations done when you spent the day being a rep yourself.... you CANNOT win here. I crush my goals monthly but yet I'm told I'm not selling enough and have to report on what I should do better. I have a crazy idea, how about Spectrum advertises that their stores exist instead of letting us be the vultures fighting over the tiny scraps left behind by inbound sales? All this money invested in new stores and all I hear all day is "Oh I didn't know this store was here ".

Pros

Company Provides Tools and Vehicle, they put your through the training you need. Lots of room to move up and improve.

Cons

Days can be long, You will sometimes be sent over an hour away for jobs. You are not paid for your drive time to your first job or home from your last. You will have to repeat other techs that do not install according to company standards
