Pros

- 39% of net profit (Event Coordinator level) - 68% of net profit (Owner level) - not an office job, somewhat fun - travel within the GTA - orientations with business vendors - great learning experience, if you tough it out

Cons

- NO BASE (warning: should be well off, and want to do this as a hobbie) - must have a vehicle, doesn't matter if borrow, purchased, or rented - you need a vehicle to get from A to B - kms, gas, cell phone - get ready to rack up on YOUR credit card. ie. always on the road, opposite ends of the GTA and making cold-calls on your mobile (THEY DON'T REIMBURSE YOU) - 7 am meetings (not paid for), ridiculous - if you've been there longer than 3 months - like every sales role, territories will be worked up; you have to persevere. - shady colleagues (non-stop cattiness, it's your business, so people will climb on top of you if they can. ex. steal a lead within your territory) - more than 12 hour days if you want to survive with this job/at this company - if successful, and become owner, your expenses could drag your earnings back down if the team you run, does not do well

Pros

Here we have good pay and hours. All employees are treated fair and respectfully. My manager is nice and he does not hover. I have my own independence here and get along well with everyone. We all work together as a team and this company is very well-rounded.

Cons

Hard work. Long days. There could be more perks.
