Pros

Good company, very collegial and good input and management

Cons

Pay is a little less than I would like. You are paid hourly so youre taking calls for eight solid hours each day which can get exhausting

Challenging time of transition

Recommend
CEO approval
Business Outlook

Pros

Individual planners around the country are, for the most part, compassionate and knowledgeable people. My own team is supportive and positive. Good base pay (virtually no raise, however). Annual bonus.

Cons

Frequent changes in leadership lead one to wonder what is happening behind the scenes, constantly. No one can state clearly what our competitive edge is in the marketplace, which is a red flag.
