Pros

Free coffee and juice.... Management is professional and generally pleasant. Wish i could say more positive things but the pros don't eclipse all the cons.

Cons

Extremely high turn over in the sales dept. People either quit or xfer out to another dept (If they are allowed). This is miserable work. Expect to have unreal sales expectations and constant monitoring of phone calls and badgering for more productivity. After the extensive and challenging training program expect to have lots of Job threat's for not hitting your numbers. A lot of bait and switch. They tell you one thing to get you in the door and it changes after you are through training. Expect a less than desirable schedule. Expect a different pay plan than what you thought. Expect very little flexibility. Hard to have a personal life because the insanely strict scheduling. It's literally monitored down to the minute!!! ASK LOTS OF QUESTIONS!

Pros

Great culture, work from home, healthcare, good pay and hours.

You are paid an hourly wage but only for hours worked, you may not be given as much work as you wish and be available for more time than actually worked.
