Our compensation model is built on revenue sharing, so similar to working as a freelance contractor, your income is entirely tied to your generated revenue. Some of our support staff focus on lifestyle issues and elect to consult at a more relaxed pace, utilizing our self-determined calendar to pursue individual enthusiasms like hiking, motorcycle racing, snow boarding, surfing, vacations, or sharing private time with relatives and acquaintances. Others take advantage of the opportunity to earn big dollars via hard work and extended days. Progent fully encourages both sides of the spectrum plus everything in the middle.
