Vantaggi

No more than any other similar company; flexibility and sometime above hourly "minimum wage" if you can work fast---and in the Northeast, you need to.

Svantaggi

The pay is just on the edge of not being worth the time once you add time for preparation, travel and reporting. And, in some cases---the reason have stopped doing work for them---the pay is based on very under-estimated times to complete large projects and like resets. Also, they do not write instructions and reporting forms with the perspective of an actual rep in an actual store. Examples: visited a store that did not have certain materials which were needed in addition to those that then had sent me; the rep field support was closed (Sunday) and I had to guess about how to compete a several-hour job or risk the whole day being rejected by their "quality control." Often, their online reporting question are senseless, like those that lead to no possible answer (example): "1. Does the store sell widgets? (Yes/No); 2. What color are they (Red/Blue)? [If they don't sell widgets, you can't answer the question.]

Vantaggi

Nice for an internet job however only average $130.00 per month and not enough income to live on and pay rent and off the Communist Methodist Church in yellow page to not call or write etc. But for work experience even though not my line of work as accounting clerk as office work for profit corporations only.

Svantaggi

Downsides are if the computer is not available or the web page is down.

Vantaggi

None since they changed management.

Svantaggi

They started a new system where you have to log into a portal when you get to the store that you are servicing. You can't leave the store until the estimated time is up for the project. Some projects would be estimated to be 3 hours but could be completed much quicker. You have to stay in the store and clean up the display/aisle until your 3 hours was done. If you log out of the app before the estimated time for the job you did not get paid. The department managers are busy and do not want you in the department that long. They have their own work to do and you can be in the way. Before the app, you would go to the store, service it and leave. You didn't have to waste time. Very poorly managed compared to how it was a few years ago. I don't know who designed this new system but it's not very efficient and the person who they have estimate the time to complete the work must work really slow. Being an independent contractor means you have to use your time wisely. Wasting time in a store when the work is done is very unproductive. I worked for them for 6 years and it was great until they changed management.
