Pros

1) Enriching young working environment 2) Structured training to continuously enhance your skill set and mentality 3) Personal mentoring to increase sales standard 4) Non desk bound 5) Career progression is based on your performance instead of qualification 6) No experience required as mentoring will be provided 7) No caps to how much you can earn (Star sales agents may earn >$1k per week)

Cons

1) Full commission (Off day equals to no pay) 2) High commitment and this steals off your personal time 3) Working for both weekends are "highly recommended" 4) Some days, you may not clinch a single sale even though you worked hard for the whole day 5) No welfare benefits (No Medical leave, No CPF, No dental benefits, No Annual leave etc) as you are so called "Self-employed who is contracted to the company 6) Promotion will only happens if you are able to train and keep a group of people working closely with you (You will earn management incentives based on your team performances) 7) Occasionally, sales disputes are bound to happen as there will always be dishonest sale agents around 8) You are "highly recommended" to attend workshops and trainings AFTER WORK that is provided by STAR sales agents

Pros

Let me start by sayung that I had a great career of 6+ years as a school teacher.. I decided I wanted more. That my core skils of communication and teaching people could be put to better use elsewhere.. After some soul searching I started applying for Sales and marketing roles, as I felt I was best suited for thAt. Fast forward less than two years later and I helped to build offices in two divisions of the company all while earning a healthy emough living to start a family and keep my wife home w our newborn son. This was a game changer for me, Id worked for the likes of Mcrosoft, Omnicon and in the DOE. Non of which offerdd me the personal and professional Developmentt and growrh potential Appco has. I am paid for my effort and results as any business should. Additionallly i have hyper developed communication skills(verbal & non) I have learned how to run and build a high level sales office. Oh and i have become a leader to those around me. Leadership is the paramount skill I'ive developed. I have worked in England, Scotland, Australia as well as California, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Texas as of now! All and all great income(well above my teacherrs salary), great people/enviroment, amazing development both personal and professional. Oh and benefits after 90 days, boom! Most important is the promotional structure of the company works. Im proof of that.

Cons

You may have to spend time with me
