Pros

Lots of opportunity in this career field as 93% of reps wash out in the first 6 months to a year. Ability to make good money, as long as you have a huge wealthy network. Offers the ability to set your own hours, IF you can last more than 3 years. Starting out is a grind which is why I rate it a 2.

Cons

"What have you done for me lately" attitude by partners at the office I worked for. Minimal training for those new to the industry or out of school which makes it extremely difficult to establish credibility in an extremely competitive landscape. Poor leadership shown by managers, "Book appointments and let me know if you want me to go with you" mentality. Out-dated presentation and approach to gaining clients.

Pros

Flexible hours and nice people especially managers.

Cons

They giving you more work in the call center without proper training, others get paid more than you for the same work. They its a business need when it's just them downsizing other departments and dumping work. The systems do not work. They promote volunteering for the company but call center reps can't participate. You request vacation days and they are denied because of the call volumes. No promotions unless you've been there 3+ years and even they you make $2000 more per year.

Some perks - like working from home, on-site gum. Depending on the manager.

Cons

Very high turn over. Unhealthy culture, that promotes yes-men.
