Pros

You get to work from the comfort of your home. No commute to deal with. Save money on gas. No crazy coworkers to deal with.

Cons

You are part of a scam. People are calling about getting home or auto loans. Your job is to trick/persuade them into a consultation for overpriced credit repair by reading a lame long script that converts at about 1%. If you work from 9am-1pm and take one or two quick bathroom breaks that time does not count towards your hours worked. No one can talk for hours on end with no break, Your voice will be hoarse and 99% of the people calling you have zero interest in credit repair even if their credit is horrid. You have to work a minimum of 25 hours a week. The leads you're sent are controlled by the "managers" If the managers are upset with you for some lame reason they will send you a bunch of dead leads. Dead leads are leads that have already turned down the service 3 or 4 times. You will get cursed out and called nasty names. Dealer Dialer also known as idialu is a scam. I would not recommend my worse enemy to work there.

Pros

Ability to set your own hours and work from Home! If you treat it like a full time job and apply yourself you can make a decent living. No start up costs.The required software is installed by the company. Support and training is available. If you produce, they pretty much leave you "sell" in your own style. No rigid "follow our script" or else baloney. If you enjoy phone sales, this might be the best job you ever had. The leads are legitimate and fairly fresh. The product/service you offer is credit repair.so the market is HHUUGGEE.

Cons

Compensation plan is somewhat complex. Your sale is passed on for another agent to close. Your paycheck is affected by the performance of others. If you perform well but are not among the top 1/3 of the sales force your compensation is reduced considerably. Bottom line, if you know you are a good salesperson, and are confident you will be in the top third of the sales force you'll do fine. Of course pay is commission only (1099) and you will experience rejection and hang ups on a regular basis. If you can't handle that, you most likely , aren't a seasoned sales agent.

Pros

Work at home, control over your schedule although weekend and evening hours are required, can pay the bills. You can make up to $15/hour based on performance but that is linked to your team's performance and where you rank that pay period. Base is $8 and commission is stepped depending on your stats. Team leaders will help you as long as you are putting in the effort. They make money based on your work so they want you to succeed.

Cons

Customers not on the phone for what they think they are. They think they are talking to someone to get a loan but you are really trying to talk people with credit challenges into speaking with a sales rep for a credit repair company. Also end up with people crabby because they haven't received a response to their application and you have no recourse. They think they are on the phone with the company they applied to and you shouldn't let them know otherwise but there often isn't a customer service option. Made me feel badly that these folks were in a stressful place and I was "tricking" them and couldn't help.
