Pros

Meaningful work. Good quality training.

Cons

After a short training period, you are thrown onto the streets, sink or swim. After the trial period, quotas increase, and even long time canvassers can lose their job if they have a streak of bad luck. Asking people to part with their money can be soul sucking if it's not your thing. Dealing with constant rejection, and standing in the sun/heat can get old.

Pros

It was wonderful! The people were friendly and open-minded. I enjoyed going to different places like Buffalo, NY and Ithaca, NY. I loved being able to do my small part to make a difference on this planet. I'm passionate about the environment.

Cons

Not paid enough, and I didn't get to acquire any computer skills.
