Pros

Company has a great culture in the main office. Technicians are supported as much as possible both with technical learning and sales/customer training. Most regions have a large enough tech team that new technicians can rely on other local techs for learning and good socializing in the job. Management does not push techs to sell unneeded equipment to customers, customers needs are expected to be put first in every tech job and met with appropriate resolutions, whether it is time for fixing issues or the sale of new/replacement equipment.

Cons

Technicians' schedules can change at short notice and can vary widely day to day or week to week. This is outlined when interviewing / starting but some people may still view this as a negative regardless.

Pros

no skills required, they wont care, just tell them you like selling things and can fix printers.

Cons

The job comes with low pay that often doesn’t feel worth the hustle, especially given the high-pressure sales environment. Field techs are constantly pushed to upsell tech and equipment to clients, with penalties looming if sales goals aren’t met. Management feels out of touch, creating a huge disconnect between leadership and the people actually doing the work. Hours are unpredictable, travel is long, admin time is usually unpaid, and the work can feel isolating. Despite a lack of available jobs, you’re still expected to stay on call and ready. Missing sales targets too often can quickly land you on a performance improvement plan, making the role even more stressful.

Pros

Lots of learning can be had and the ability to call and ask questions while in the field helps a lot. Lots of driving so get to enjoy music in between jobs

Cons

due to the nature of jobs, finish times can vary widely and be unkind, staff turnover is about 2 years. managers will try to force you to make sales goals and upsell clients to be more profitable, I don't really as it goes against me personally and I just want whats best but I miss out on bonuses due to my mindset. they will put you on "performance improvement plans" if you miss to many sales goals. due to being customer-based, it's very easy to have and and bad days depending on who you get sent to see, definitely have days where you feel like you don't get paid enough to put up with this, also from this nature you only see workmates about once a month in meetings
