Pros

None. There is nothing good about this company.

Cons

They do not pay commission. When you leave, they will not release your appointments even though when you work there they tell you you are an independent contractor and you have to pay for everything yourself. When you’re hired, they tell you, you will buy Leads from them and they will do everything else but once you start working there, they tell you you have have to market yourself and they don’t help you. Seven months after leaving they suddenly told me I owed almost $1500 and when I ask for a statement explaining why I owed this much money, they contacted a lawyer.

Pros

Not sure there are any

Cons

You purchase your own health insurance Each location is privately owned so each location treats employees differently. Look out for culture and micromanagers / owners. No accountability for any employment violations or protections as each location is their own entity.
