Pros

They provide Free TV, but you have to rent their equipment.

Cons

Never have I worked for a company that worked so hard to convey their utter disdain for their employees. When the pandemic hit, they laid off their employees with 15+ years of experience with only a week's pay, and then posted their jobs a few weeks later. Their culture is based on fear and intimidation. Their policies are in line with their complete distrust of their employees from rigidly enforced core hours, inflexibility towards employees who get injured or sick, and travel policy that requires you to share hotel rooms and provide receipts for every penny spent. In 7 years, I've seen many more people fired than I have promoted.

Pros

Work from home is the only pro I can think of

Cons

They don’t provide any equipment aside from the computer itself. They mislead you during the interview and job description. You are paid according to price of product sold and close rate however it’s all inbound calls and you can not call back. The inbound calls are lousy, people who don’t even have a $1 on a card in order to do the eligibility check, or no card at all.. poor credit which leads to higher out of pocket costs. I think only a handful of times I couldn’t overcome the spousal objection or the just shopping objection. Those I will take responsibility for but if I’m getting calls from people who don’t have a card or don’t have a $ or don’t have the money to put down OR already have an account or is a mis-transfer or were passed along because the technicians have to make referrals even though the customer isn’t actually interested in the product yet the tech makes them still call.. that’s crap and it’s not real sales.
