Svantaggi
There is no such thing as a work-life balance. You are forced to work 7 days a week if you have not hit your numbers. Everyday is considered a production day, which means there is no such thing as a vacation or time off. You are always accountable for your numbers even when you go on vacation. Quotas are not even prorated when you go on vacation or go on sick leave. There are no opportunities for advancement within the company. People are forced out of their jobs by receiving no work, or horrible work that is impossible to resolve. The success of this role depends on your territory and manager. Some of the areas you have to work in are extremely dangerous and will have gangs, bedbugs, shootings, and cops will ask you to leave because its too dangerous. Manger will play favorites and those people will be given better work and will even be given work in others territory. Technology needs a major overhaul. The computer systems you use are ancient and need to be replaced. The questions you ask homes are too long and most homes are upset by the time you leave.
