Pros

Pro's Training is awesome International Events are great Website top of the line.

Cons

The con to 5linx it feels like a recruiting company than service based company. The products they offer are not original products besides globallinx. The products they promote which are offered 3rd party do not pay great residuals/ I think the company at some point will change over from VOIP to electricity in the future in being their primary product. To avoid being called a pyramid they have a VOIP service where the service charges get higher and higher every year. 5linx have to come to facts that VOIP is no longer the ideal product when you can get it free on the net. The big problems is that they stress to the reps "points" "Points" due to the fact the residuals on the products don't pay that well. They never discuss the average pay at certain levels. A lot of the products you can promote yourself and still get a affiliate commission. The company is primarily composed of African Americans which is awesome but at times your feel your at church with folks screaming and grunting from the audience. A great company with great leaders but don't have products that is unique to the consumer/
