Pros

Easy to make a quick buck short term.

Cons

Pay stays the same while work load steadily increases. Managers watch Netflix more than manage. Big boss is never there but collects his bonuses while lower level works hard long hours for less and less pay. No advancements. It’s a job not a career.

Pros

Pay is decent for those of us who have built a large enough customer base over the years.

Cons

Commission rate cuts the last five consecutive years. No path for advancement. Poor management. Since 2021, every change they have made that I have seen is designed to keep the stock price as high as possible - which has been stagnant for 10+ years. Customers and employees come last.
