Pros

Flexible schedule and good pay if your motivated and the ability to some what have your own business. Great company to work for.

Cons

They pitch it as your own buisiness and you should run it that way but what they mean is do it their way no exceptions untill your proven. Knocking on doors works but there are better ways to prospect in todays world especially when the temps are negative. FT trainers tell you one thing and ATL says another.

Pros

Great training for the Series 7 and 66 exams. Great place to get a start in the business if you are self-directed and well organized. Good peer support group

Cons

Much emphasis placed on prospecting the "EJ way", making all the daily contacts and numbers. Emphasize quantity over quality. Limited product training. Too many new FAs in the same territory
