Pros

Good benefits package if you stay long enough to enjoy them. A good reputation in the Midwest. Paid training, pretty weak pay though

Cons

If you value you personal time and self-esteem, this is not the job for you. 70+ hours working every week (typically 7 days a week). DOOR TO DOOR SALES! enough said

Pros

They have allowed the HBA’s (home based associates) to remain remote

Cons

Micromanagers, they say they are okay if you want to apply to another department within the firm but the minute you do it’s like you get a target on your back. The pay doesn’t match the workload and the word is that you have to quit and then come back to make what you should already be getting paid. Benefits are terrible but 401k is pretty good
