Pros

Western and Southern Life is a financially strong and conservative company. It is well recognized as a strong diversified financial services company, and its growth in non-core businesses over the past 10 years has made it a much more dynamic enterprise to work for. There are many opportunities for younger professionals to develop management and leadership skills. That being said, its very conservative culture also holds it back from being better able to adapt and innovate in a changing marketplace.

Cons

Little innovation; not collaborative; very political; compensation is okay, but you would not work at this company if compensation was your #1 objective

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.
