Pros
work from home, flexibility, get to do some travel early on, they do "pat you on the back" often & want to make you feel good via their CRM & at meetings (they do this to compensate for their lack of pay)
Cons
micro managing from higher ups - the regional sales mgr was decent but his bosses were agonizingly horrific. they tell you great job & list you on their CRM but they lie about possible pay & also bonuses. I was told an "average" rep makes $55k the first year - not a chance - usually $35-40k TOPS. I also had a quarterly bonus pulled AFTER the quarter was over - that was the last straw for me. You don't change the rules after the earned bonus. Even if you do very VERY well (80% turnover within 24 months) it would take you 5 years to make even decent money.
