Pros
Great job for people with no education who don't want to be a ditch digger or waiter. You make about the same amount of money. Great training for bait and switch sales. Also they'll hire ANYONE willing to work for them as anyone who recruits someone below them gets part of their commission. There is the possibility of making around 1000 a week after your month long training with no pay.
Cons
Cleverly disguised pyramid. It's so easy to get a job there because anyone who hires you gets part of your commissions. Long late hours (getting home around 11-12). You get your foot into people's houses saying your giving them a free child safety kit and then put them in a high pressure sales position trying to sell them life insurance. Most clients don't have a job and will be paying for their life insurance with government welfare checks. You'll train hard for a month with no pay, the whole time the managers are using tactics to make you feel like you're too committed to back out. (they want you to make them some money after all) They'll leave you to sit alone for hours between training sessions. You've invested this much time already so they know they've got you. The life insurance isn't even "Union discounted" as you're instructed to tell people. The Whole life policies are priced normally and the term life policies "are a scam" (direct quote from a manager). You have to pay about 300$ to start the job getting your life insurance license. My advice, don't waste your time, money, and gas. Hold out for a real job that doesn't take advantage of people!!
