Business Outlook
Pros
Northwestern Mutual truly is a company owned by the people and works for the people. The values they stand for coupled with the accountability and an environment where everyone is pushing each other to be the best version of themselves is not a common environment you find in regular corporate America these days. Not only have I made strong, lasting friendships but, I've built what feels like a home away from home.
Cons
The finance business can be tough in general. There are preconceived notions the world has about the finance industry and the professionals within it. The rejection from the public can sometimes feel personal but, at the end of the day, our job is to serve those that want to be served.
