Pros

if you like flexibility and freedom and making your own schedule, this is for you! however, the cons outweigh all these things so do not recommend

Cons

high turnover, overbearing bosses, overbearing upper level management, unsupportive operations team, and btw no one wants to talk about payroll, buy it, or change it so have fun calling on small businesses owners about that
