Vantaggi
There is a possibility to have a good working career here however it is very few that really make it. It all depends and how much you know previously and can sell to people you know or how fast you can build a network out of thin air.
Svantaggi
Anyone who is promised a salary as a consultant is being lied to. Carefully listen to what they say. There is no salary, 100% commission and finding clients is all on you. It costs money to have a job there. You must be self motivating and honestly for most no matter how hard you work you wont make a steady income. High volume and activity is the only way to survive. For many that I saw come through, help us only offered to a select few and falls off quickly once you get to a certain tenure as the higher ups get paid less off of your efforts. You must have close to 50k in savings to get through the first 2 years because it will take a long time to get going. Hard to trust people and its better not to stand out, just follow the herd here.
