Pros

Unlimited earning potential. Freedom to work how you want. They offer good benefits and incentives. Yearly trips if you make expectations.

Cons

Knocking on doors as a form of prospecting. It works well, but can be very slow and arduous. If you can stick it out for the first couple of years, this job can be absolutely amazing. It's just not for everybody. You must be able to sell. The payout scale is quite a bit less than the industry average, but the company culture is also set up differently.

Pros

- Decent benefits programs. - Teammates who cared about the quality of work they provided and the people they worked with. - Direct superiors who were people of integrity that I respect immensely and wish nothing but the best for.

Cons

- Recent removal of remote work for all associates regardless of how long they had worked remotely previously (13 years in my case). This push to onsite work will damage long term profitability and likely cause a mass exodus of talented associates (if it has not already). - Massive amount of offshore outsourcing that has greatly reduced the quality of work at the home office. - Lack of flexibility regarding work schedules that has severely damaged work-life balance.
