Pros
This job will definitely humble you. If you think you're good at something, they will tell you where it needs work. Definitely a potential to make alot of money, but you will do nothing but work and sleep for the next 7 years, minimum, before you see any real fruit. If you're ok with that, by all means, go for it.
Cons
Zero work-life balance. You work about 65 hours a week. When you get promoted, that increases to 75 hours a week. When you train new recruits, they get part of your commission, so you better be really really good at what you do. You need at least $5,000 in savings if you live alone. You won't get paid for the first 3 weeks and even if you do really really well like the top reps, bringing in ~1800/wk, you only average about $20/hr. Not that great if you ask me. If you have no life, no friends, and no commitment to anything else and don't care that you aren't really making that much, you might just be successful in 7 years. It is definitely a multi-level marketing scheme. The money IS real and so are the people. However, it is just very hard to come by, especially if you suck. You are not permitted to have a bad attitude so if you're prone to getting down at a lack of results, don't go. The CEO is a very nice lady; intense, but nice. She cares about your success and she will work with you. It's just very difficult to keep yourself motivated when you have trouble even paying for the gas to get there.
