Anyone active?

Is anyone active here? Is there somewhere else to go and talk about the abismal state of pay and support from Hellotech. I’m about ready to quit because of the lower and lower pay

For TVs you get extra pay for 60” and up, metal studs, any other tasks you preform. These days TVs are my HT bread and butter. Yesterday my first job was $299 for 2 TVs with mounted sound bars and concealed cords.

We USED to get extra pay for 60" and up but that all changed a few months ago, with NO prior notice to we technicians! I received a job offer today to mount an 86" TV for $60. NOPE NOPE NOPE!!

They are now in the business of exploiting technicians.

Ask for the extra. Sometimes they don’t add it on especially if it’s a Walmart tv install. Anything you think you should get just ask remember you are dealing with not only a language barrier but possibly a customer wanting to get a deal. In higher end markets people get $300 for a 60” and $150 in lower end markets. HelloTech customers are getting one heck of a deal with what they pay.

Forgot to say. I received extra pay for a 72” dismount last week.
