I had high hopes, but have lost them and what little money I had.
Pros
- Friendly coworkers - Management positions appear to make high 6 figure salaries
Cons
- Long hours, most of the work is done late in to the evening. Appointments are set at one hour intervals from 2:00-8:00pm at peoples homes. - Extreme wear and tear on your vehicle from driving all over the place frequently. - You have to buy all your own supplies, business cards, gas, etc. Try to get you to write it off as business expense, but there are limits to how much you can claim on taxes. - You have to pay your taxes as a 1099 like a personal business. - They have a highly scripted sales pitch where they want you to convince the person that they can afford something your selling. You have to memorize it and play videos on your laptop at points during the sales pitch to try to convince these people to buy from you. - They want you to join a union when you sign paperwork to work with them. I personally am not a fan of modern day labor unions. They are not all they are cracked up to be. - Possibility of going to dangerous neighborhoods at night to make sales. NOT a good idea this day and age!
