Pros

Almost complete schedule flexibility. Lots of interaction with a variety of individuals that you are able to learn from and also educate.

Cons

I am comfortable with the idea of production based compensation. The problem is when you have absolutely no control over your level of production! When it comes to money and savings, the more people you meet with does not necessarily translate to higher compensation.

Company owns your client base. Company claims as being an independent but pushes you to sell proprietary products via commission structure. Not very team oriented environment.
