Pros

Not much in the way for Pros when the company played a lot of favorites with employees.

Cons

Agents would hire outside Admins to help them but company wouldn't acknowledge them nor keep them apprised of changes within company protocols. Agents would lay off Admin at any given time with no warning. Company would never back them up cause they are considered outside employees. I personally worked for a agent for about 10 years & one day on a Monday (3:45 pm) he tells me he can't afford to pay me any longer. No warning or anything. This was all premeditated because he had cancelled my health insurance already. Very unprofessional! Again, company did nothing for me because they considered me a outside employee.

Pros

*Meet lots of new people. Feel appreciated for the education and advice I'm providing them, whether or not we end up working together. *Feel that I'm making a difference. Chipping away at financial literacy and lending my ear and helping problem solve financial issues that affect people from all walks of life. *Very straightforward career pathing. Corporate leadership or wealth management with lots of guidance on how to get where you want to be. *Paired with a great mentor that's taught me the ins and outs of the profession. Wisdom on both the financial services craft and how to balance life around it. *Compensation is incredible! However, good work ethic and patience is a must.

Cons

*A lot of hard work (not necessarily a con)! Big time commitment to be responsible for meeting new clients and making sure current clients are happy and well-serviced. *Sometimes frustrating or disappointing when someone doesn't want to work with you after meeting with them a few times. *Make sure you are working someone you feel would be a strong mentor for you. I feel very lucky but I know the experience differs from team to team.
