Pros

Highly organized and open communication have been great with this company. As a Field Interviewer I have enjoyed the ability to make my own schedule as I meet new people and I have had some great supervisor's.

Cons

Sometimes the hours you are able to work get in the way of family life. You have to call on homes when people are home which is weekends and evenings at and just after dinner time. There have also been times when there were not enough cases to keep me busy but this so far has been fairly infrequent.
