Cons

This company has proven to be incredibly hypocritical in my experience. It operates almost like a cult, incessantly reiterating its "Mission Statement," even though it consistently falls short of living up to it.

The most glaring hypocrisy lies in the company's professed commitment to caring for its customers and helping them build wealth, while the reality from an insider's perspective is a relentless drive to increase subscription fees. Furthermore, their proclaimed "values" are nothing more than empty words, as the company fails to align its actions with those values.

In this environment, success and reward is determined not by one's contributions, but rather by one's rhetoric and who their friends are.
