Pros

At Telus Mobility the best reasons to work for them is the money, the money and the money, Telus offers a high base wage to go along with the excellent commissions structure. Also if you preform well you get extra money on what is called your Star Awards card for meeting your monthly goal, also during certain promotions you get money on your card for doing well on a test or for selling x number of activations. Also your health and life insurance benefits are the best i have received from any employer i have worked for, Telus also offers a EPP ( Employee Purchase Program) program for employees part time and up. To get a corporate handset once a year at a severe discount, on a plan for $15 a month. I love working for Telus for it is a fast paced work environment that strives for professionalism and they compensate you well for providing them with that. Also Telus offers its employees company stock options where they pay so much and you pay so much for your stocks which you can sell in a bind when you need cash.

Cons

Though there are few there are some downsides for working at Telus. First thing i will say is that they sometimes hire certain employees who are not right to work in this field and they will not get rid of said employees in a prompt manner for having low numbers which are far below the designated minimum standards which makes the individual store look bad to the area. Also they sometimes do not give promotions to the people who deserve them as was the case with one of my former co-workers who decided to end his career with Telus for that reason,

Pros

Work from home and create your own schedule. Paid training. There is an option for therapy through the company.

Cons

They are hiring, but there aren't enough tasks to make the minimum of 10 hours a week. There are no raises and no promotions. They take a long time to respond to emails, if they respond at all. The only benefit is a 401 (k). $14 is the pay rate, and one can only work 20 hours a week, if there are enough tasks. The past couple of exams for training set one up to fail them. I have been doing this job long enough to know this. They constantly threaten your job, which really affects morale and confidence. There used to be bonuses, but they haven't done them in a long time. There were times we were given permission to work up to 35 hours for the week, but again, it has been a long time. Last one, they didn't have enough tasks to allow for workers to get to 25+. They also offered stock options, but they ended that as well. They made a major mistake on my end and threatened me unless I complied. Eventually got an email that they were wrong, but they didn't apologize. I saw they were hiring freelancers with a maximum of 25 hours a week. I wrote to management and was told the rest of us were only staying at 20. I am currently seeking other employment. There are other companies that do the same work with higher pay and actual benefits. This was once a good job, but once Telus took over, it has been downhill. I would not recommend this company anymore. I'm starting to wonder if this isn't a sinking ship.
