Pros

Lots of young collaboration and meetings with different wholesalers

Cons

-Unprofessional management -Underqualified management -Managers want you to ask your friends and family to invest in annuities they have bare minimum knowledge of and push their life insurance to sell -No real finance involved in the job -Improper "onboarding" and training program (complete lack thereof) -You will feel like you're working at a call center which is what they don't tell you in the interviews.

RBG Advisor - Not Good

Recommend
CEO approval
Business Outlook

Pros

- Don't have to bother friends and family - Hire college grads so at least you can have other guys in the trenches

Cons

- Over promise on "RBG Opportunity" - Despite what they say, they don't have a high success rate or retention rate - Worked well for those starting out in the 2000s, but not practical today - Some school districts are very restrictive, but your manager won't care and still assign you to that district because the last advisor left - Imagine signing up for your employer retirement plan and not knowing it's an expensive annuity
