      Pros

      -gain excellent sales experience -learn from world class salesmen -fast paced sales environment -unlimited earning potential -lots of training from managers/ experienced advisors - learn how to cold call like a beast! Yes, cold calling is still part of the business people, get over it. - selling good products

      Cons

      -straight commission gig. There is a base salary option but it's like 30k and if you go that route your commission payout is very little. Most people opt for straight commission route. -be ready to make very little money at first -AXA advisors doesn't have the best reputation in nyc -some managers/ senior advisors try to run and sell too fast -endless revolving door of young advisors being hired and leaving -

      Pros

      They are a very large company with a well known brand name so they have a lot of resources

      Cons

      You have to come into the business knowing a lot of wealthy people or having a lot of connections. They have a culture of cold calling and they expect you to do it if you do not have the business already. They also charge their advisors for virtually everything, including office space.
