Pros

No pros. This company is stuck in 1990. I am a current employee and I can't stand it. The only satisfaction I get working for EJ is that I might get a job at the 10 other firms I applied to. Don't waste your time. Scam.

Cons

This place is a scam. Don't waste your time. Management doesn't do a single thing. No one knows each other and there is NO TEAM WORK. This is not a company.

Pros

Can get licensed quickly, ability to build a book of business, reasonable commissions

Cons

Impossible to build a book without brining in prospects worth 20M+ , nepotism is high, door knocking in a big city is unrealistic, unless given an office or assets from the get-go don't waste time beyond licensing.

Pros

The benefits were good and they had awesome training modules. When working with great FA it can be enjoyable too.

Cons

Corporate communications with BOA was very lacking and a two person office can be great or troubling, depending on who the financial advisor is.
