Pros

They offer a flexible schedule and the ability to work from home

Cons

Commissions are already paid 2 months in arrear. For the second month in a row they are not paying out commissions that sales reps earned in December and January. This means that the commissions you earned in December are paid in APRIL. In addition, did they tell the company? No this is hidden and has not been communicated to anyone except the one off people who have asked.
