Pros

Very fun work place and great work environment. Awesome incentive trips, great culture. Good management. Very motivational culture. Very lenient schedule depending on manager.

Cons

Bad pay within first couple of years. Back paying salary through "recovered commissions". Not much support in terms of finding clients.

Great potential but major grind

Pros

The autonomy and flexibility is awesome, paired with high earning potential. Pretty good training and mentoring opportunities, but the same opportunities aren't offered to all new advisors.

Cons

It was not clear that there is no real base salary, only an upfronting of commissions. Even that is low. Meanwhile, there is no flexibility or accommodations to be made if you can't hit the expected numbers, and if you don't hit said number at the end of a quarter, you'll be out of a job. It's perform or don't work here. Be prepared to make cold calls.
