Pros

They provide good training material and support. If you are struggling they will try to help as much as they can

Cons

More cons than pros tbh. Depending on the training manager, you can have a tough in the training process. Some just go with the flow and leave you with a lot of free time to figure things out alone. You learn the hard way, they set you with a customer and you are expected to give a whole presentation and get tons of leads to call later. The whole system seemed like a MLM scam.
