Pros
You get paid what you are worth. It's not hard to to earn $50k-$60k and if you stick with it for 3-5 years, you can be earning $75k-$100k. You also get to compete in carrier contests and earn an additional $3k-$15k per quarter in bonuses (on top of commissions paid). It's super easy to earn the $3k bonus and takes a little effort for the $5k bonus.
Cons
It's straight commission. You don't get paid if you aren't writing new business. Also, there is no corporate style job benefits such as health insurance, 401k contributions. There are stock options though.
