Pros

You will be paid but not what you think. Benefits available but at a high cost. You can write off some expenses at the end of the year.

Cons

Managers claim sales from their employees, taking commission. Upper management is too busy being friends with everyone to handle issues with managers hurting their employees. They make classes mandatory and then sign you up for classes and charge you for them. Micromanaging the employees and not the managers who set employees up for failure. Possibly the worst company I have ever worked for.

Pros

Local office was fantastic. The head of the local agency was a fantastic leader, one of the best I have had. The training program was very hands on. In terms of starting a financial practice with a firm, they have some of the best compensation, with a very strong base.

Cons

HR department is more like police on a different team than on your team. Always seemingly trying to make life harder for reps. Unlike anything I have ever dealt with.
