Low pay but makes up for it in perks.
Customer Service and Sales Hybrid Representative (Former Employee), Clearwater, FL –
Pros: given the tools and training to excel, seeing celebs every now and then, discounts on merchandise, located in clearwater, florida
Cons: low pay.
i worked here for only a short time as a customer service and sales rep. Training was thorough and everyone seems to be helpful and polite. Seeing celebs is always a nice rush at work too. Overtime is offered a lot around the holidays when i worked. Expectations are clearly expressed. Lots of discounts are offered and the workday can fly by on busy – more...  days. Get used to communicating with management via emails and on the phone, HSN is huge and it's possible not to SEE your managers for days. You will deal with great customers as well as infuriating customers as you can find yourself taking heat for a previous rep's mistake, all part of customer service. – less

Answer Sales Calls from home.
Sales Representative (Current Employee), Roanoke, VA –
Pros: i am off during the day time.
Cons: the hours. i work from wed-sun 4:30pm to 1am.
I work from home taking incoming sales calls from customers from around the United States. I have learned about different personalities, how to provide customer service. I have never met my co-workers because we all work from home; however we do have instant messaging we communicate that way. The hardest part of my job, is dealing and trying to help – more...  a very upset customer. The wonderful thing about my job is when I am able to help a customer out by locating and researching items that they are looking for. – less

Great company to grow with.
Master Control Operator, Live Show Coordinator (Former Employee), Saint Petersburg, FL –
HSN is a great place to work, but in the production aspect there are often management changes and the stability can be a bit shaky. Overall HSN treats their employees very well and prefer to hire from within.

Hard work and extreme dedication
Merchandising Assistant (Former Employee), St. Petersburg, FL –
One must devote their life and lots of time here. It was a nice environment. Training was a little rough because you are learning everything before you actually have to use it so it take a while to adjust to the ways of working there.

Overall OK!
Customer Service Representative (Former Employee), Roanoke, VA –
Pros: good schedules, discounts
Cons: distance, advancement opportunities
Overall, this was a pretty great place to work. I left because the distance was too far and they didn't offer the option to work from home at the time I worked there. I also didn't see much opportunity for advancement. At the time, I was young and enjoyed the non-traditional schedules (for second shift) and they even offered volunteer opportunities – more...  throughout the area. It was suggested by the company and got you out of work for a day. The computer recommended products based on a customer's order, so all you had to do was make the offer and you could get a little commission easily. It was a no-brainer and easy! – less
