Pros

The job is completely home based. No work related transportation costs, vehicle wear & tear or money spent on work attire. The company provides all the office equipment and they pay $75/month to cover internet and telephone. The call center is open everyday so setting your schedule should be a breeze. Advancement at home is possible or transistion to one of the on-site locations anywhere in the world. You are apart of a team.

Cons

You are committed to the schedule you create for 1-2 years so choose wisely. Like any job you may be asked to work holidays. Working at home is still working. If you like chit-chatting with co-workers all day this isn't the job for you. Yes, you do still need a babysitter (not a con just a reality).
