Pros

The people and the company events are awesome. Can thrive if you are really good at sales

Cons

If you don't do natural market(i.e. Mom and Dad) your gonna have to spend 4 months not making money. 200+ calls a day, awful training. Absolute revolving door, saw over 10 people accept jobs work for a month or two and quit. Some of the worse comp structure in the industry. Wouldn't wish it on my worse enemies. I ignored some of these reviews going in, don't make the same mistake I did.

Pros

They have Good Product to offer to your client,

Cons

If you are a new Hire, be ready to quit because they really need a trainer to help you be successful. Be ready to struggle the hard way, not by physical force, but on your persuasive and analytical skills. You must overcome your fearness to be a failure and become a winner. You must show you are charismatic with people and good listener, and good talker specially on the phone. Your stress lever and blood pressure will be high, make sure you have your proper medication handy. This will help you be successful. you are on your own running the show. The lack of support is very slow and you need to make move to survive. But if you are a person with positive attitude and willing to go all in and take risk until you make it. This place is ideal. Sky is the limit. it would be great you if you get lucky and have a mentor, or trainer to show you all of this. But hate to say this, this company doesn't have one. you need to figure this out by yourself. in fairness if this company want to be a great company, hire a trainer. This job is for winner only, or experience advisor. if you are not a winner, please quit and look for something else.

Pros

flexible schedule. you get to meet alot of cool people through networking. high bonuses IF (and that is a BIG if) you can pull it off, it will be a great career

Cons

no salary (the salary they offer is a scam) cold call focused pressure to sell to family and friends lots of expenses, equitable will tell you to spend your money on things to help business but they give next to nothing.
