Don’t even go for an interview

Pros

Hard to think of any...Good earning potential if you’re willing to work hard for it and give up your life.

Cons

Management seem to have no personality or feelings towards anyone who works there. They view salespeople as slaves. They can’t keep a simple sales strategy without having to change it every 5 minutes. Promise international travel, you’d have to be lucky to be offered it though. No assistance if you’re struggling. Poor starter training. Interview is a lie. They even pay people to write a good review on here to hide the truth.
