Pros

Some flexibility in making schedule, but some micromanagement with teams. Remote. Good benefits and 3 weeks paid vacation and 2 weeks sick days

Cons

Over half of the pay is based on Production, bonuses and quality - this can vary week to week depending on when you submit completed audits and when reviewers complete their review. And your audit is subject to the opinion of a reviewer. If someone goes on vacation or is sick entire team has to work more to make quota, which makes job incredibly demanding and stressful.
