Pros

Remote position. Managers and supervisors are knowledgeable.

Cons

Insurance is hard to sell because the advertising is a bit misleading to seniors. Only paid commission if you reach your goal each month. Goal is hard to reach because product is hard to sell. QA is very strict. Calls are non-stop. Constant issues with computer systems.
