Pros

Flexible time, you're your own boss (mostly), you gain great networking and management experience, you relate with many people, you have your own office space, the vacation rewards are outstanding, and if you can hang on long enough, you can make a lot of annual income.

Cons

Highly stressful and exhausting first 3-5 years, the work is very repetitive, and money becomes more of a life-focus than it should for many families and many marriages.

Pros

They have allowed the HBA’s (home based associates) to remain remote

Cons

Micromanagers, they say they are okay if you want to apply to another department within the firm but the minute you do it’s like you get a target on your back. The pay doesn’t match the workload and the word is that you have to quit and then come back to make what you should already be getting paid. Benefits are terrible but 401k is pretty good
