Pros
Flexibility. It's hard work but if you put your clients first, you will make awesome money. A lot of people get scared with commission but you make more in the long run- the officers and partners for this office do extremely well. They do a great job with reward and recognition. The trips when you succeed are amazing.
Cons
It's hard work. It's sales. It won't ever be easy. But when you get rolling, you will love your paycheck and the ability to feel like you are running your business. You will work A LOT in the beginning. Don't give up. Seriously. Stick with it and give it your all. After being in the business for a while it was all worth it. I take vacations when and for as long as I want. I make great money and if I want more... I work harder. If you don't succeed its only you to blame. Just do it. Talk to everyone. Don't be afraid of rejection. I'm passionate about what I do. Its heartbreaking to deliver death benefit checks but it makes you realize this business is not about the money. It's about helping people. And it's hard. But so worth it if you get off your butt and just do it.
