Sprint/nextel employee benefits?

**samrozzi** · 07-09-2009, 09:41 PM

I jsut found out I am getting a great job as a Sprint/Nextel associate in store to sell phones/plans etc...

I was wondering what are the perks?

I am assuming free phone and plan from them? but are their limits to the phone or plan. I remember seeing they all usually get blackberrys free but not the pre. Could i get the pre with my own money but sprint still covers the bill?

thanks

i work for best buy mobile and i know that i can get a 25% discount on my monthly bill.(if i chose to go with them.) im not sure what discounts you can get on phone. you can try google'ing it, thats what i did.

Idk about Sprint but when I use to work for T-Mobile they gave me a free blackberry and I paid $20 a month for unlimited everything though this was many years ago. I assume each carrier has something similar but idk

could you choose from any phone in store? or did they just say heres a blackberry?
and if you wanted to could you of upgrade to a diff phone.

like I think sprint gives you a blackberry but Im wondering if its possible to upgrade to pre.

Don't you think you should have asked this during your interview? Not here on an Android forum.

i too was a best buy mobile employee but i got free blackberry and unlimited everything for just price of surcharges... this was like 2 years ago in suburb of chicago (one of first stores to have best buy mobile, i was the beta haha) but a friend of mine worked for sprint for past 2 years she said she got free blackberry and only pays like $22 a month for unlimited everything =D

no OF COURSE NOT, asking a question like what do I get for free is very unprofessional. Its not good to ask things like that. But she did tell me just forgot about plan thing
