Vantaggi

They pay well, generally more than other employers in Nashville.

Svantaggi

Save some of that money and be prepared to be laid off at any time. I was there for over 2 years, which included three Decembers. Two of those three there were major RIFs, layoffs, mass firings -- whatever you want to call it. December 2018 they got rid of 70 people in IT. They'll be hiring like crazy this spring. Every year, they churn a lot of people. The environment is wide open. If you like noise and bustle, it is perfect. If you ever want to concentrate as part of your job, you are in trouble. Get some great noise-blocking headphones and figure out a way to shield your vision, because the noise and movement from every direction with no walls or partitions in the worst implementation of the flawed open office concept I have ever experienced. Right before I was RIFed there was a guy in the "pod" right next to me -- our elbows were literally less than 12 inches apart. They have an embarrassment of riches, mainly because cell phone insurance and extended warranties are a complete ripoff. Other than the moral baggage of working for such a company, know that all that money means lots of projects being spun up on a whim. There seems to be no process to avoid duplication of effort, or starting something from scratch with a new team rather than fixing an existing product with lessons learned from the existing team Very wasteful, but they recover money by laying people off every year. They have a reputation in Nashville, and it isn't a good one. Several recruiters told me Asurion is known for spitting people out. Another major employer in town refuses to hire anyone who has worked at Asurion. They do not want their culture infected by anyone who has been part of the Asurion way.

Vantaggi

The job does pay well and does give you commission and mileage back. It’s 22.05 an hour and .77 cents per mile ( you will drive a lot and your mileage check will probably be the same as your weekly check )

Svantaggi

The job is hyper focused on pushing people to sell VHDP or HTP (VHDP Verizon Home Device Protection ), ( Home Tech Protection ). The job doesn’t really care for the financial situation of a client and will say “ well you could have told them even though they are on a fixed income, they can still get the plan and talk to their ISP about financial hardship “ the staffing is sometimes very scarce and is also very lack of consideration for driving far off with no help if you get stuck. If you happen to have a vehicle issue ( which you will ) you have 7 days to get it back up in running before you get either written up or let go. I did enjoy working for this company, but it was mentally taxing and always was about getting every dollar out the customer even though they already paid for the visit for you to come out, and the phone replacement which they have to pay for monthly. Once you have worked for the company for atleast 90 days you will get a tablet and they will make you start doing Verizon consultation about the customers WiFi and try to sell them these 90 dollar WiFi just so they can make the most money possible. It’s all just give me money even though you already gave me money
