Pros

Company sets appointments for you. Don't have to be in an office all day like other jobs. There are sales contest to win extra money and gifts.

Cons

They have a big emphasis on SGL's (Self Generated Leads) but that is tough to do when you are sent 3 company appointments/day. You have to work Saturdays and it's not just a half day. There is at least one call night a week where you are in the office and have to make so many calls and get so many appointments set. They are very focused on your sales pitch but that does no good when they don't teach you about product.

Pros

shift differentials, the ability to trade shifts or flex, paid training, premium holiday pay, plenty of overtime hours, and good for employees looking to build their resume.

Cons

you might have to work mandatory overtime during hurricane season, large volume of calls, very fast paced, and you may deal with hostile or panicked callers.
