Pros

Being a faith based organization, the company does things the right way. Throught out the economic downturn I feel strongly about the companies strength. This makes it easy to see your clients each week. They pay a commission advance for new hires and reimburse the costs of all testing.

Cons

I am unsure of the competiveness of the commission structure. It feels difficult to have the "big week" that is necessary to do things like pay your taxes or put a down payment on a car. I feel that when you have a couple poor weeks there can be a little over concern by the management about the reasons causing added pressure.
