Pros
Worked from home, laptop and monitor provided
Cons
Applied for an Account Executive position doing what I had previously done for promotional services distributors. Was hired on as an account manager doing Telesales was not at all what I applied for! Nor was I making anywhere near the money I had expected. I worked from my home in Wisconsin and the remote employees were not offered any incentives other than leaving an hour early unpaid if we met our sales goal. The only people that got incentives or bonuses or holiday parties were the people that worked in the office. Canada had a different holiday schedule and the US employees were forced to be unpaid while they shut down and paid the people in Canada. I left another position with a $110,000 in my pipeline to take this job and then they eliminated my position by the end of the year and terminated me 2 days after my sister died, refusing to give me any bereavement pay
