Pros

You can acomplish as much as you are capable of. As long as you hold up your end of the bargin, they leave you alone. You can be as involved or as uninvolved as you like. The people are great, truely the best people I have ever know, anywhere. The company has very high ethical standards, you are never expected to compromise on any ethical question, not tacitly or explicitly.

Cons

As an FA, there is no way to slow down, ever, unless you have acheived what you must. I suppose that is the tradeoff for the freedom

Pros

There is a real Family atmosphere at the firm. Other area reps are very helpful and want to see you succeeed. Support at the home office is also very good.

Cons

When I started the technology and quote system was terrible but understand it has since improved. My biggest negative would be that as a new broker you start out having a home office. When you go door-knocking and prospects ask you where your office is located and you tell them out of your home , I ran in to lots of credibility issues. I understand that they have changed this recently.
