Pros

Autonomy of your work Lots of upward potential Great networking opportunities

Cons

Churn and burn model; They know their attrition rate is terrible thats why they hired you and about 50 of your neighbors Bring a book of business or a plan because if something throws a wrench in the door to door model like a global pandemic; dont expect anyone to tell you how to succeed Legal jargon in the contract you sign from the beginning threatens to hold you responsible for a large loan for "training fees" if you complete all the required training.

Pros

They have allowed the HBA’s (home based associates) to remain remote

Cons

Micromanagers, they say they are okay if you want to apply to another department within the firm but the minute you do it’s like you get a target on your back. The pay doesn’t match the workload and the word is that you have to quit and then come back to make what you should already be getting paid. Benefits are terrible but 401k is pretty good
