Pros

Solid surrounding group of people who are all driven. Good manager who cared about the success of his employees and communicated well.

Cons

This job is basically going into schools and working with teachers to set up their retirement plans, if striking conversations with new people scares you don't do it. Not a lot of training, pass the exams and start driving around.

Pros

Nice people. Can't come up with 20 words that would be pro comments for this company.

Cons

Absolutely the worst payout of commission in the industry. Only a few proprietary products. Only one excels over the competition. No base salary. Employee pays for all expenses, including office space, study material for exams and testing. Even after multiple years, made less money then when I was in HS! Very little internal training. No guidance in marketing, prospecting or financial strategies. Every new hire in 4 year period, left AXA for competitive companies.

Pros

Daily meetings and training every week with senior members to learn about the industry. They give you the opportunity to speak with veteran employees who have been with the company for a while.

Cons

For the first six months you basically work on commission and most things come from your own pockets - licensing exams and registration and providing for you own business.
