      Business outlook

      Pros

      Flexible, work from home, manager is not local.

      Cons

      The pay is awful, salary and especially commission is an absolute joke. No incentives, and most of the people that work there were highly uneducated. Anyone could work this job, you do not need any skill set whatsoever. It was embarrassing what poor grammar my "managers" exercised.
