Pros

Great benefits, you are largely free to do what you want within your territory, you are a revenue producer and important to the organization in that respect, the brand of the bank is at its best ever due to its performance during the economic downturn, they cover mileage, provide a laptop and phone. You will have a territory of several branches from which you will be exclusive investment representative. Great leadership on the bank side.

Cons

You cannot count on your branch network to give adequate referrals to reach your goal. I would ask for a book of business of no less than 30 million to give you a reasonable chance of attaining goal and a decent payout. Some reps complain about the compliance department and product offerings but I have no major problem with either. I will say the ship is run tighter than most other places but that's why they avoided many of the headlines other brokerages suffered with.

Pros

Benefits, Bankers Hours, Co Workers, Every day clients, Sales experience and training.

Cons

Unrealistic sales goals, Managers treat you like a number. Unless you go to the Leadership Development Program you won't get promoted. Politics in branch. Everybody fighting for a promotion. Hopefully you get a good branch with a nice manager who are far and few between.
