Pros

It's a great company to start your work from home experience. If you're someone who feels that migrating to office everyday isn't for you, this is a great start. You'll be part time starting out, but if you do well and get the promotion to Senior Advisor, you'll be given full time with a small raise. The At Home program isn't a career, though. I understand they promote it as such and you'll be so excited they hired you, but after a few years in the program you'll see it's just another call center job. Put a few years in and move along.

Cons

- Incompetent Team Managers - No consistency between managers. One will praise you while the other will put you down. - If you're not someone's favorite, don't expect to move up. - During launch times, you'll be expected to work 60+ hours per week. Mandatory with no exceptions. - If you don't "fit in" you'll be ostracized.

Pros

Great products with employee discounts, competitive pay, good benefits, ability to work from home, a great place to get experience.

Cons

The biggest con is the work/life balance. Expect to work during all holidays if you work in customer support. This is something that has become more and more frequent through the last few years. Also expect you take call/chat/email one after the other with little breather in between and have this last for months. Expect to be so burned out that you end up taking a medical leave because of it. You will also deal with absent management who take frequent vacations and have backfills fill in for them. You may also deal with not being paid properly and having to wrestle with HR to get it corrected.
