Pros

Complete Flexibility of Schedule Unlimited Earnings Being a part of my life ( Taking time off to see the play, game etc.. ) Accountable to myself only! Excellent Product Selection, Everything offered is scrubbed so well I can sell it to grand ma and feel good about it. Sleep Well at night knowing you are doing the right thing for yourself and your customers. Door Knocking is a blast if you wait for a sunny day, and get out of the office to enjoy some face to face time.

Cons

It is HARD, HARD Work. Pay is LOW first 3 - 4 years. You are not different, Everyone here is good at what they do, Don't tell yourself you can outperform everyone else because bla bla bla, It is very very hard work, and you will work very very hard just to stay up.

Pros

They have allowed the HBA’s (home based associates) to remain remote

Cons

Micromanagers, they say they are okay if you want to apply to another department within the firm but the minute you do it’s like you get a target on your back. The pay doesn’t match the workload and the word is that you have to quit and then come back to make what you should already be getting paid. Benefits are terrible but 401k is pretty good
