Pros

The ONLY pro is that they'll hire anybody pretty much anytime with half a brain. So if you were desperate for something it could fill the gap between "good" jobs.

Cons

Tech Coach was created to take the burden off the carriers when it comes to teaching dumb people how to use their smart devices. So, as part of your cell phone insurance you get a poorly trained millennial who checks things off a guide. My experience is from the top down they are basically willing to do or say anything to make the carriers think it's a great product. I worked for Verizon who IS a good company for nearly a decade before doing the tech coach thing and was appalled at the level of immaturity and "deceit" they used at Asurion to maintain their contracts with the carriers. Basically it's just a bunch of people who needed a job in a city full of call centers. I think I still have nightmares about it from time to time. The interviews were jokes. The training was the biggest waste of time and money I have ever witnessed. The management was awful.

Pros

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 )

Cons

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
