Pros

Great networking...even if you hate it you should have a good network to move on to bigger things within 6 mos. Solid training...you can use the skills other places...learn how not to treat people...learn about telecommunications and technology and one again network, network, network.

Cons

Seems to be kind of a bunch of frat boys and sorority chicks. They can be cliquish and seem to forget that this low level of acting fails in the proper corporate environment...need an ethical bypass at the door

Pros

They do start you with a pretty strong sales training class that lasts about 6 weeks where they teach you about their products and sales techniques used in door-to-door sales. They don't just throw you out there to make a sale.

Cons

You have to visit 50 businesses per day at the minimum. It is achievable but if for any reason you come up even a couple short you are scrutinized for lack of effort. Door-to-door cold calling is also very degrading to a certain extent. You are treated like an unexpected guest all day every day which is very unpleasant. Very high turnover. Sales managers don't really care about you, just the number of sales you bring in every month.
