Pros

The company itself is good and everyone is very nice and if you make it you can have a great fruitful career

Cons

They are literally the worst and make you work 10+ hours a day 6 days a week to grow your book by door knocking. If you start from scratch like I did you’ll be given nothing and just hope you have family that can invest in you.

Pros

They have allowed the HBA’s (home based associates) to remain remote

Cons

Micromanagers, they say they are okay if you want to apply to another department within the firm but the minute you do it’s like you get a target on your back. The pay doesn’t match the workload and the word is that you have to quit and then come back to make what you should already be getting paid. Benefits are terrible but 401k is pretty good
