Pros

The schedule is what you make it, but if you’re not scheduling meeting your not making money. The office environment was great and very social.

Cons

Marketing and advertising is very limited because of industry regulations. If you do not have a military background it is challenging to find clients. Client segment is very small as the services offered are almost exclusive for military personnel.
