Pros

NONE none at all. One week in Chicago that is "All expenses paid!" where they work you so hard that you have to stay up until 2 am studying to keep up. My poor fellow duped employees were the only positive thing about the trip.

Cons

Nothing this company told me when I was hired was true. I would not be trained in my home town, instead while I was in Chicago I was told that as soon as I got home I would be trained somewhere 3 hours from my home... another week in a hotel. Then one week at home and I was pressured into driving three hours away AGAIN for a one day conference that was more like a cult meeting. EVERY morning you have to sign into a sales meeting, no matter what you are doing, do a stupid cult like chant, and the managers are never on time so don't worry it WILL take more than a full hour. I was constantly denied proper materials and asked to BREAK THE LAW. DO NOT make the mistake I did.

Pros

Honestly none besides flexible schedule. I mean the Chicago trip seems like a pro until you get there and they treat you like kids at camp. Coworkers were cool though.

Cons

Screw you over after you quit. Everything is a numbers game to them. And not just the clients but the agents also. They like the casting a wide net strategy of hiring a bunch of people and hoping one sticks. You start dreading when the phone rings because 80% of the time it's your manager wondering about your numbers. And they say you set your own schedule and you do to a point, but your manager will always be on you to stay out knocking on doors until 9pm. Customers dont appreciate that in the slightest and I dont blame them at all. I never felt comfortable doing it because it's just plain rude. Management doesn't care though they just want numbers.

Thank you for taking the time to leave this review. Our agents have the opportunity to engage in an entrepreneurial-type career that involves setting up their own schedules, developing their own leads through networking, working hard, and earning a virtually unlimited income based on the volume of their sales. We offer a comprehensive benefits package and merit-based promotions as well. It’s true this type of sales is not easy and is not for everyone, and we regret it wasn’t a good fit for you. We wish you all the best in your future endeavors!

Pros

Training was top notch. But very overworked and intense.

Cons

Everything else was awful! Worked 13+ hour days. Leads aren't really leads. A lot of canvassing! No sales, no paycheck. And I ruined my car.
