Pros

You will gain a valuable sales skill set here. There is an 80 cold calls per day minimum, this will be a great tool and foundation to take with you to your next job. There is a good deal of travel involved, but the products are top notch and will sell.

Cons

You will burn out very fast, and they know that. The burnout factor is built into their hiring system.... the goals are often unrealistic and if they are not met you will meet financial penalties. Your bonuses are actually decreased.
