Pros

» A culture that challenges employees at every level to perform on a daily basis » Abundant opportunities to apply a broad spectrum of knowledge and skills » A great environment to grow quickly given the right executive sponsorship and visibility » A great place for truly talented and passionate individuals to invest a great deal of time and build a career

Cons

» Management generally not receptive to change; emphasis on reactionary decisions - preoccupied with "fighting fires" » A demand for productivity and efficiency that unfortunately ignores employee satisfaction and concerns » Widespread duplicate and incomplete work, frequent functional silos and counter productive sub-cultures; poor standardization of practices and outdated tools typical » A management culture that promotes coercion as an accepted practice to drive results

Pros

Work from home is the only pro I can think of

Cons

They don’t provide any equipment aside from the computer itself. They mislead you during the interview and job description. You are paid according to price of product sold and close rate however it’s all inbound calls and you can not call back. The inbound calls are lousy, people who don’t even have a $1 on a card in order to do the eligibility check, or no card at all.. poor credit which leads to higher out of pocket costs. I think only a handful of times I couldn’t overcome the spousal objection or the just shopping objection. Those I will take responsibility for but if I’m getting calls from people who don’t have a card or don’t have a $ or don’t have the money to put down OR already have an account or is a mis-transfer or were passed along because the technicians have to make referrals even though the customer isn’t actually interested in the product yet the tech makes them still call.. that’s crap and it’s not real sales.
