Pros

Some colleagues were really nice and easy to work with Could sometimes be a relaxed environment Some benefits such as commission and incentives

Cons

Some people you work with are uneducated, unprofessional and improper (if you do not have a sense of humour this is probably not for you) Lack of HR system, each office has admin staff (basic stuff really) Lack of progression Salary is not great when starting out, potential to earn (so they say, be prepared to be broke for at least 3 - 8 months before seeing any potential earnings, company works on a retainer basis) Lack of community
