Vantaggi
Hum? Work from home if you can get any work. Since I need 20 words minimum - Work from home again.
Svantaggi
Getting any hours to work. The sales agents are grouped based on sales production stats. There used to be 3 but recently the top group got split into two (Elite {#1} and Experts {#2} I believe) and the next group below that {#3} (not sure what they are called) and the newbies (Onboarders). Available hours (first pick) are rolled out to the #1's on Monday, #2's on Tuesday, #3's and Onboarders on Wednesday (what's left) . And I get it. If you are a top performer, than you should have access to the best times and products. And you don't want the under performers or newbies working the choice accounts. In order to come off of "Onboarding" you need hours to show your stuff. 2 weeks ago I only had the ability to get a whopping 3 hrs, and this week - 1. It would probably take me months to come off of Onboarding (I think, as management is pretty secretive as to how that works). And I'm not the only one. Hipchat message board indicated others not getting any hours. You get paid $3.50/hour seat time and 2% commission on anything you sell. That's $2 on a $100 sale. 20 cents on a $10 sale. You are going to have to put in some hours to make any dough. And you can't get any! It also seems a "Good Ol' Boys" club to me, if you know what I'm sayin'.
