Pros

Work on own schedule, many resources, great training when you start out, managers really try the best to help you close deals

Cons

monthly fee to company, broker takes 50% of your comissions whereas other companies take much less. some even give you 100%, not enough office space where i worked. had to share desks with other agents and when you're in the office with them its kinda awkward going into his/your desk with them there

Business Outlook

Pros

Benefits. The other employees and agents are the best thing about the company. Name recognition is good. Good marketing materials for sales.

Cons

Micro management. The cost for agents are too much. The Managers have practically no expenses paid, The managers are expected to have expenses for marketing to be paid by the vendors they give business to. Also managers are expected to sell additional services to agents to get their bonus's. Much pressure to sale to agents that can't afford the service. Creates division between managers because they are scared to say anything and if you disagree with upper management your chances of getting a good review is slim.
