Pros

You are the boss. You are basically given the opportunity to build your own business. The only thing that you are expected to contribute is your sweat and hard work. Not to mention a few tears.

Cons

The first two to five years are tough. You will need to contribute more than you have to give. But once you have established yourself in your community you will find yourself highly rewarded for all your hard work. This is not a job for people who are seeking instant gratification and a high salary for doing nothing.

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
