Pros
What I value most is doing work that makes a difference in people's lives. Being able to help families help their loved ones brings me joy. It comes full-circle
Cons
The compensation for SLC's needs to be increased. SLC's do a lot of work and I believe it is more difficult than the work of and SLA. I believe we should be paid equally. I have worked with APFM for 3 years. In the first year and a half, it was a lot easier to make quota every month. I believe I missed quota 3 times in a 18-month period. Since then, the job has been more difficult with the leads we get. The leads are "beat up" and are junk. I have so many deceased leads, leads that have been passed around to 3 or 4 advisors before they get to me, and leads that are no longer looking. It's hard to find someone that is actually looking, unless they are a re-inquiry. As the job has become more difficult with what we have to work with, the quota has remained the same and hasn't changed to reflect what should be more attainable. This needs to be seriously looked at and revised. Otherwise, top performers will leave the company. I already know a few that have left because the compensation didn't match the job.
