Pros

It your business you are your own boss The freedom You build real one on one relationships with clients - Face to Face. This is the most rewarding Job I have ever had in Sales. All the support you can find

Cons

To much freedom - lack of support you have to find it and sometimes it is not as easy as it should be. Low pay starting for training and they olny support you for the 1st year after your can sell This cause high turn over. They people place in supportive rolls are only there so they can get LP points. Lack of honesty when it comes to how they top producers are successful - meaning the tow the company line about how to build the business! Door Knocking is they only way this company tells you how to build your business.

Pros

They have allowed the HBA’s (home based associates) to remain remote

Cons

Micromanagers, they say they are okay if you want to apply to another department within the firm but the minute you do it’s like you get a target on your back. The pay doesn’t match the workload and the word is that you have to quit and then come back to make what you should already be getting paid. Benefits are terrible but 401k is pretty good
