Pros

Great training. They give you a base for a while.

Cons

They try to make it seem that they offer more resources for new reps and that their new rep retention is 50% compared to 10% in the rest of the industry. However they set up their pay structure to keep you there for at least a year so the numbers are not comparable. They offer decent lead programs but you won't get access to them. Also, be prepared to give up half of whatever you bring in on your own because if you need to bring an experienced rep on an appointment then you have to give them half your commission. Your manager won't be able to handle an in depth appointment so you have to bring another rep with you.
