Pros

You learn a lot about direct marketing. Operation runs smoothly.

Cons

The 6-9 months until financial freedom that they pitch is more like the exception, not the rule. Of course, no one tells you that when you interview. Or that your Sunday nights will be spent working. Or that the $8.25 gas stipend is totally insufficient. Or that the only person in the whole office to fully complete the program is the boss, and that was in Ft. Meyers. Really, you are a dispensable cog in a wheel pushing mid-level products in big box store somewhere within a 60 mile radius from Clearwater, 30-50 hours a week at $8.25 an hour. But they do a great job dangling that "you will be rich at the end of this" carrot in front of you. This can be the right program for the right person. But ask a lot of questions before you board the ship.

Pros

I've been working for this company for about 4 months now, and I have gained more experience and knowledge within this program than I would have ever gained from another company. The program that is offered here is giving me so many opportunities to help better and grow my success. I am valued as a business partner rather than an employee. I can't wait to see where this program is going to take me in a couple more months!

Cons

People might start this job with the mindset that this program will be given to them without putting in hard work and dedication. Doing the minimal effort will not advance anyone but only hinder them from completing the program towards ownership.

Pros

People were nice, fluid workplace

Cons

Structured like an MLM so its hard to move up in the company and make more money. Sales associates selling organic cleaner were encouraged to spray it in our mouths to make the sale. I did not enjoy essentially drinking cleaner.
