Pros

Work from home during covid

Cons

Day to day duties are awful, call after call with some extremely abusive customers and management would never do anything about it. Extremely strict on lunch breaks (would have people messaging you if you were 10 seconds over a break - no exaggeration. Wouldn’t have contract extended, constantly threatened that you’d lose your job if don’t meet sales targets. It should be flagged as a sales job, not just customer service. Couldn’t get holiday off at all - had to just be given your annual leave on days that worked for the company. Managers were all nice but it’s just a completely toxic environment, toxic work culture where employees are exploited. Looking back, now working in a sane and reasonable work environment, I don’t know how I put up with it so long.

Pros

Great compensation, benefits, and hours. Get to know many clients and businesses on route. Lots of exercise. Lots of alone time.

Cons

For some, the alone time can be very lonely. You are in a van or truck for many hours. Podcasts, radio, hands-free: get to love it. Sometimes logistics can be unpredictable. Delays, traffic, on-call pickups. You have to be very flexible and adaptive with fairly quick critical thinking skills to excel at this job.

Pros

Get entry level sales position. The company has great benefits..

Cons

You will be calling 80-100 times per day for months until you get promoted but it’s a fairly easy job. Can just be boring.
