Pros

flexibility is the only good thing about the job

Cons

one day they'll be sued - I have to use my personal car, internet, computer, phone and credit cards when traveling... their reimbursement rate for mileage is 15-35 cents/mile (um, federal rate is 55.5?). Plus they don't "count" the first/last 20 miles of driving or the first/last hour. For people who are used to minimum wage jobs, this seems like a dream... but I'm making 12 bucks an hour - with expensive benefits and pay out the yazoo for car maintenance/gas/etc... driving about 3k/mo for work... oh, had to get a new car too, because during work hours my car was totaled (acosta didn't care)... like I said, one day they'll be sued for their absolutely horrendous expectations for those of us who are in the field.... I would NOT recommend this company in any manner whatsoever.

Pros

The store personnel you work with on a daily basis Flexible Hours No recognition for your work or lots of boxes showing up at your door for future work you may or may not accept manager who ignores problems instead says DYI No pay for your first hour of drive divr or the first 40 miles These are pros of the job

Cons

Out of pocket often exceeds what you might actually make A computer system that defies imagination in where you can find the information. More firewalls than than the Great Wall of China Visit direction poor if you can locate it. Multiple Materials for visit -you figure out or try to get thru visit directions. Continually passing the responsibility to others. Having to check off everthing dealing with pay....many of the mileages are short bot in miles and time duration.
