Pros

Days to day work is average, benefits are decent. Fellow employees are usually in the same boat you are in and can sympathize with you.

Cons

Management is out for themselves , your just a peon unless you know someone. Don't even think about complaining, cause you don't know what your talking about and will be the next to go! Vacation time is earned by the paycheck, so you can't use it until you earn it and can't earn it until its to late.

Pros

Pay is decent for those of us who have built a large enough customer base over the years.

Cons

Commission rate cuts the last five consecutive years. No path for advancement. Poor management. Since 2021, every change they have made that I have seen is designed to keep the stock price as high as possible - which has been stagnant for 10+ years. Customers and employees come last.
