Pros

Can work autonomously. The sky is the limit for commissions

Cons

Company is not concerned with advisor retention or happiness. Co is only concerned with making more money and charges advisors with many "fees" related to running a business. Unfair commission policies.

Thank you for taking the time to share feedback. We appreciate you found value in working autonomously as there’s a lot to be gained from aligning yourself with an organization that enables you to be in business for yourself, but not by yourself. We believe our biggest asset is our people which drives us to provide an unequaled value proposition to find and retain top talent. Our retention rate for first-year advisors in 2023 was 93%. The retention rate among our established advisors is approximately 93%. Equitable Advisors’ ESF retention has been exceptional in the 2000s, averaging 91% per year.

Pros

The firm is competitive within the annuity and insurance products. Salesforce is efficient and robust.

Cons

This employer does not provide you with ANY information about costs that you are ultimately responsible for (Real Estate charge for office space-cube, Errors and Omissions Premium payment, etc.) These expenses are deducted from your production, therefore you take home pay is reduced significantly specially as you are building a book. Management did not disclosure these expenses during the hiring process. Clearly their purpose is to get you in the door without being transparent.
