Pros

Work life balance schedule some of the co workers

Cons

Literally the worst run organization I’ve ever worked for. Lack of respect for associates starts at the top, even the upper management tells everyone they are replaceable. The communication skills are extremely lacking. The lack of education and training in all levels of the management and HR shows in this company. I’ve personally never seen employees treated so poorly by managers and the company has no interest in changing this. The only concern the company has is productivity and making profits. Even with a highly built resume the only way to grow with this company is to be apart of the “ boys club” and keep quiet about the ethics of the company. The hard working associates deserve far better than what they receive from leadership in this company.

Pros

Pay is decent for those of us who have built a large enough customer base over the years.

Cons

Commission rate cuts the last five consecutive years. No path for advancement. Poor management. Since 2021, every change they have made that I have seen is designed to keep the stock price as high as possible - which has been stagnant for 10+ years. Customers and employees come last.
