Pros

Good office culture, good national meetings and trips

Cons

Have fun working 12-16 hours every day, harassing people like a telemarketer, chasing people down the streets to try to convince them to buy from you, overpriced and poor quality products, unrealistic demands to employees. The "base" pay that is promised to you when you are hired is nonexistent. You will find yourself: friendless, exhausted, miserable, and broke. You'll forget what your life was like before being taken over by TJ. You'll feel like you are in a cult, and quite frankly, working at TJ is comparable to being hazed in a fraternity or sorority. This is a company, which is mostly dominated by young adults, just out of college. This is a stepping stone to a better job, not something you should ever consider making into a career. RUN while you can.

Pros

Not only is there unlimited opportunity/commission, but there’s unlimited personal development. The leaders constantly are challenging me to think with principles, think big for my goals, and giving me resources to achieve those goals. The people I get to serve for my clients are to top division makers, influencers, and income earners in Austin and I’m honored that they trust us to serve them.

Cons

Building a business requires thinking big, thinking strategically, and getting out of my comfort zone. As with any business, the better you do the more problems you face and are challenges to solve.
