Pros

You can control your own schedule, as you are a self-employed business person. If you are motivated you can work hard and be in charge of your own earning potential.

Cons

This is a high-pressure sales environment. There are also mis-aligned incentives as insurance sales commissions do not incentivize advisors to continually take care of their clients. The training and supports are not exhaustive and you must really be a self starter and willing to figure things out for yourself.
