Pros

Great company if you get a good FA to work with and a profitable office. My office is profitable but my FA is cheap when it comes to bonuses.

Cons

None other than trying to coordinate time off with the only on call my FA will allow me to use.

Pros

Long term perks and bonuses very appealing. Be your own boss so long as you are meeting expectations. The beginning is the hardest part; gets better over time.

Cons

Door-to-door solicitation is awful and hurts your credibility. Your a financial salesperson not an advisor. Good company for small towns but can't compete in major metro areas.

Pros

Great environment and company culture; opportunity to work with some of the best and brightest in the industry; good opportunities for eventual solid six-figure, growing income for the right person if you're willing to pay your dues for the first 2-3 years. There's nothing better than being able to serve the future financial needs of the clients investing with you. The training is world class!

Cons

Probably not a good fit if you have significant current financial or major family obligations; income in the first year or two can be lower than most other professional jobs and the hours can be daunting - if you're willing to work 60 to 70 hour workweeks while possibly earning much less than $12.00 to $15.00 per hour, on average, for the opportunity to earn much, much more down the road - this job may be for you
