Pros

They put a lot of effort into training and paying for it upfront.

Cons

Outdated model by still promoting door knocking; it isn't effective in today's world. They over promise on advancing in your career., the only people that make it are the ones that are given assets or retirement plans. They are also over hiring right now and is creating high turnover since they don't have enough resources to support new people.

Pros

- Decent benefits programs. - Teammates who cared about the quality of work they provided and the people they worked with. - Direct superiors who were people of integrity that I respect immensely and wish nothing but the best for.

Cons

- Recent removal of remote work for all associates regardless of how long they had worked remotely previously (13 years in my case). This push to onsite work will damage long term profitability and likely cause a mass exodus of talented associates (if it has not already). - Massive amount of offshore outsourcing that has greatly reduced the quality of work at the home office. - Lack of flexibility regarding work schedules that has severely damaged work-life balance.
