No work-life balance, too political

Pros

Some really great people. Bonuses paid on trimester basis, which keeps you there. Good location.

Cons

Most positive experiences are from branch office administrators and advisors working in branches. Home office culture is promoted to point of seeming cultish. Resources are allocated to "leaders" who want to make GP or compete with other GPs. As a result, you're in meetings all day and doing your work at night and on weekends to support those at the top.

Pros

Independence, ability to do the right thing for clients, income potential, good people at the ground level. It is a challenge which is actually achievable.

Cons

Door to door sucks, non solicitation neighborhoods are everywhere, there are many big fish who only look after themselves and don't need to contact and take business which your working for.
