Pros

has Flexible Hours and worked with good co-workers

Cons

Extremely difficult to get past year 1 due to nature of the job. Competing with reps that have years of more experience for the most part and there's 0 leads to start. 9/10 probably left within their first year since salary is full commission and they weren't able to meet ends.
