      Pros

      You need to have a wide network, know a lot of people. Prospecting, social event, network event. You need to like meet with prospect. They coach you.

      Cons

      They don't care what you did, always ask what is next. You need to work lot of hours. You will pay extra bonus, but is work at commision. The don't advertisment at media, so people didn't know about company.

      Pros

      Extremely helpful management team, training is consistent and very useful, income can easily be $100,000+ in first year, love being a part of a team, great benefits, fun work environment, get to help out clients and your work day feels meaningful.

      Cons

      It can be a lot of hours in the first few years, but this is more of a career that you are building your own financial planning practice. As time goes on the hours become much less. I know the management team here is very selective in who they bring in, so be prepared to show them you are willing to work in the interview process.
