Pros

Good benefits, Decent work life balance, good place to start off.

Cons

The culture is extremely productivity-driven, but there is a significant lack of structure to support that expectation. There is a strong emphasis on performance and output, yet very little clarity around processes,

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.
