Pros
I did not know this was the career path I wanted to follow until I started working here. The management is great and will provide you with all the resources to succeed. You just have to be disciplined enough to follow their direction, as this is a very entrepreneurial job and it's easy get off track (80% of the time you control your schedule). It's a very fulfilling job since you can see the impact you make on people. In the US the average person is not nearly as educated as they should be about their finances and that's where we come in and help them. You also have the option to work as a team with someone or you can work by yourself. Their training is very extensive and will definitely provide you with what you need to succeed. From very early on in your career you can be groomed for management if you let them know that you're interested. Lots of opportunities for advancement. Last but not least, compensation is VERY competitive.
Cons
This is not a 9 to 5 job. During busy seasons you may have to work 10-14 hrs, but trust me you will want to work more, it definitely pays off.
