Pros

Mostly great coworkers, flexibility, clean environment, support from management if you get a good atl or mtl, and softphones (yay).

Cons

Poor pay, little to no training, dealing with angry and impatient customers, unrealistic expectations, and corporate literally doesn't care about your work experience as long as they're making a profit. It gets increasingly more stressful as you near the end of the season.

Pros

Flexible availability. Path for promotion is obvious and quantified.

Cons

Bonus/commission it is based on level and sales so is low in states without a state tax form. Hourly wage comes out of bonus. Pressure to sell items that don't add to your commission. They push customer surveys but you can be penalized if someone complains about the company, price, amount of emails etc even though you have no control. Some employees are frustratingly low quality and you will spend time helping or fixing their mistakes time that works against your commission. You are expected to answer phones, make appointments, scan, print, take money, help new comers all while maximizing returns. If you take over someone's client and find a mistake you are expected to work against your commission to file amendments peace of mind claims etc.
