Pros

You can learn a “sales” skill and you will be able to work remotely, great PTO you will want to use it.

Cons

The cons everyone has mention are sad yet very true. This company has went downhill in the employees eyesight. Many of use are unhappy and trying to escape. Strict adherence schedule, metric driven, script “call guide”
