Retail store reps earn...?
I'm thinking about going to work at a T-Mobile direct store that is opening in my area soon, and I'm very curious about what kind of compensation I might expect. I already have looked at all of the benefits, but I have no idea what the actual dollar amounts are that somebody might bring home. I realize that this is personal information, so I would appreciate it if any of you would be willing to maybe even give me a ballpark estimate. I would also love to know what the hourly wages are and how the commission structure works. Thanks to anybody willing to share. đ

I work in a family business (my family), and they just really can't afford to pay me what I'm worth and what I need to be earning. Plus business is a little slow on all fronts right now, and the wireless end is doing okay, but not enough to really keep everything else afloat for long.

Hmm i'd tell ya but I can't.
It's pretty good pay but it really depends on your market. Some markets make more than others.

Come on, Starr... can't you just give me a general idea, hypothetically? I grossed about 30K last year, along with some fairly limited benefits... I'm assuming that I could do better, right? I don't want a full compensation schedule, just some info on how it works and what might be likely. đ

Hey I just got promoted to management. I'd like to keep it that way.

Jeez, it's not like you'd get demoted for giving someone a ball park figure of how much someone could project to make as a sales rep.
Paranoia, paranoia, everybody's comin' to get ya! đ
...
not paranoia, just respecting the terms of employment.
if it makes you feel better:
part-timers can make 25-35K
full timers can make 25-40K (ive seen reps make up to 60K)
remember this is all relative to the market so it varies

well I worked a few years in the corporate world so I know what egg shells to walk on.

Starr06 said:As do I. As an employee of Circuit City (which is certainly walking on eggshells as we speak) I know all about displaying caution.

P.S. Guess which manager runs inventory twice a year at our location (and will be doing so tonight)? I'll give you a guess. He's a regular on this board, and often doesn't know when to keep his mouth shut.

Hmm I wonder who that could be... is it the same guy with the great sense of humor and wit too?
I wonder if hes cute too.

Cute is for puppies and bunnies. I'm SEXY!
BTW Starr... thanks for the general estimate! How come full-timers barely make any more than part-timers? And also, does T-Mobile have an in-store position for something like a "lead sales rep" who isn't quite management, but makes more money than the regular reps?

When I applied online, they directed me to take this web based test... it was long, and after I was done it didn't say how I had scored or anything. Is this normal? Is it actually a pass/fail type test, or is it just an assessment?
...
I still have no idea how they score the test. Its like a big secret. But you should follow up with a manager in your area, just so they can put a face with the name.
...
I am going through tthe same thing now! But the Manager is telling me to call back everyday! âšī¸

I work on the other side, as a indirect dealer.
As a sales associate, your lookin at about 25-30k a year, assistant manager 35-45k, store manager 50-60k, and regional anywhere from 70-100k. Benefits are not bad either, medical, dental, vision, and life. The company i work for is the largest indirect t-mobile dealer in teh country and i'm sure not every indirect has as good of a pay structure.

...
I already am an indirect manager, although I get paid about what a sales associate makes with your company.
...
I am also an indirect manager (for Verizon, not T-Mobile) and I get the higher end of what a sales associate gets for your company as well. Wow, I'm working at the wrong place! Sad thing is I been doing this for 4 yrs and just got the this point.
