Pros

Free coffee. Being off on Sunday...because that's about the only day you get. They work you like slaves so enjoy your Sunday while you can

Cons

It sucks. You work 12 or 13 hours a day and 3 of those hours are free because you're paid commission ONLY IF customers pay their bills. And none do, especially in commercial. The stress is unbelievable, literally so bad that I had to go to the hospital because my heart went into atrial fibrillation due to work stress. Not worth the money. You work 60 or 65 hours a week, and no matter what bring home $625. Do the math. The company is always taking money from your commission checks to make up for the draw they promised you. They also train you at my office to take shortcuts so you can get as many accounts done in a day as humanely possible. I don't have time to write everything bad about this place. It would be more worth the money getting paid $8 an hour scraping diarrhea off the balls of a gorilla. By the way, when the company turns your money over to the collection department, they pocket it and give you nothin. DO NOT WORK HERE, AND DO NOT BUY THEIR SERVICE.
