Cons

14 hour days and weekends, as an Underwriter i was there all the time, hardly had time to take a breath. Learn Quickly, people come and go to much for them to handle. Doggies dog eat dog environment. Only the hungry survive, lots of moving if you are a agent. mostly women, surprisingly 70-30 i would say.
