Yep I haven’t worked that position myself but I recall seeing from 0-60% of quota you get nothing. This basically pays your base salary, lol.

if you're below 80% multiple months you should be gone.

The quota in the stores are artificially high and arbitrary. The store traffic is down also from even 3 years ago. You get $20 of revenue for every upgrade and $100 revenue for a new phone line while competing for that line against at least 4 to 6 others during 1 shift. This shows the company has no integrity and doesn't care about customer retention, while talking about customer retentionand priority upgrades.The daily micromanaging will make you want to leave within 6 months and burnt out within a year. During the month of December your quota will be so high that you will sell 60+ phone adds( more foot traffic) but make only about $800 depending on your locations revenue quota. Lastly, you'll be trying every month to attain 80%to quota because if you don't the pip process will begin. So the first month under 80% the pip doesn't go away for 3 mos if you get a 2nd month pip that doesn't go away for 6 months, so say you're 5 months down the road and you're under 80% you're reviewed for termination. Great culture no just a lack of respect and integrity to the front line. Get yourself another sales job.

Why ask a question just to answer it yourself within seconds?
Did you just want to vent?

Not worth it think of it this way do you know anyone who doesn't own a cell phone or have a business internet or home internet? Well for the few you thought of in your head that's your client base and getting slower by the day. If you want to get a check and trade time for money you can do that but won't get very far here
