      Strictly sales. Not a fiduciary consultant role

      Wealth management associate
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      There are a few “good apples” there doing good work.

      Cons

      When I graduated from college, I thought I would be helping people with their finances, helping folks understand investing, and assisting them in achieving long term goals. I was unaware of Equitable Advisors true nature. Instead of acting in the best interest of clients, their primary focus seemed to be pushing financial products that would yield the highest commissions. I have personally witnessed a range of unethical practices, such as advising a 35-year-old individual with a high risk tolerance to invest all her funds into an expensive annuity accompanied by various insurance protections. This was the ultimate reason behind my decision to leave. Definitely look else where, but I would recommend staying away from insurance companies, generally speaking. This type of thing seems to be a reoccurring issue with insurance-focused companies.
