Pros

Helping clients with retirement planning.

Cons

Outdated marketing plan -- door knock, door knock, cold call, door knock Extremely low pay for work performed, not competitive with other financial firms. Crazy people who act like they are in a cult Outrageous hours Low pay, I think I already said that!!! No work life balance The meetings are all company pep rallies to convince you of the job They will tell you to door knock, door knock, every chance they get Working there is a Con period, not good for your life..run like hell. I hate it there, attrition is rampant.

Pros

The money is great, the trips are fantastic. Boil everything away and you're simply selling yourself to people all day. If you can do that, you're golden.

Cons

Rejection is something that a lot of people cannot handle, and if you cant handle hearing one million NO's before you get a yes, than dont be a financial advisor.
