Pros

Although it is cliché, this job is entirely dependent on your own level of motivation. I had never done a job where I didn't have that safety net of compensation which leads to inherent complacency, so I figured I'd really test myself and go for it. 2 months in, I was offered my first management contract and have not looked back.

Cons

Mild disorganization at times simply due to our being independent and self reliant. Once you hit a stride with that, this job is fantastic

Pros

Opportunity is what you make of it. Flexible schedule for those that need it. Earnings potential are great.

Hard work. This is not for those looking to live paycheck to paycheck. Wouldn't be worth the work for that.

Pros

Discipline and rough you up if you happen to be a spoiled kid, but two months would be enough.

Cons

You don't get paid on time, plus you literally have to be in the field 15-16 hours a day if you want to make sales. Although it is supposed to be 10/99, you are prevented from leaving the office (or even having lunch.dinner) during phone nights.
