Pros

Good training program for getting your seven and sixty-six. They do a really good job at hiring the nicest people. They do a good job training you how to prospect. You don't have to know anything about investing or the economy to get hired.

Cons

You work alone. You work 70+hours a week. You door knock. Terrible at sales training. Nepotism.

Pros

- Decent benefits programs. - Teammates who cared about the quality of work they provided and the people they worked with. - Direct superiors who were people of integrity that I respect immensely and wish nothing but the best for.

Cons

- Recent removal of remote work for all associates regardless of how long they had worked remotely previously (13 years in my case). This push to onsite work will damage long term profitability and likely cause a mass exodus of talented associates (if it has not already). - Massive amount of offshore outsourcing that has greatly reduced the quality of work at the home office. - Lack of flexibility regarding work schedules that has severely damaged work-life balance.
