      great stepping stone

      Financial advisor
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      the office culture was great, for a few years. The team that was initially in place worked very well together and it made work activities as well as outside work functions enjoyable. The training was second to none, they made sure you understood the model and how to implement it.

      Cons

      the contracts are not structured toward your advantage as a sales rep, its a constant grind as any sales job is. Once you start to get to a point were your production out paces the contract you will have no choice but to find an independent broker dealer to really advance your career if sales is where you stay.

      Good products, not great brand recognition, mediocre training/mentoring

      Financial professional
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Great products and the ability to sell non-proprietary life insurance and annuities when appropriate for a client. Work-life balance is challenging, if you're starting from the beginning.

      Cons

      Very little monetary support; your on full commission within 3 months of starting, and you have to meet minimums to even be offered a contract. Quality of training/mentoring can vary widely; not sure they really train their sales managers at all. To really be of full-service to your clients, you need to spend money on broker/dealer access, etc.

      Really depend on who your manager is

      Financial consultant
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Flexible hours (the more you work, you more you produce... just like any sales job) Great marketing materials available to use with presentations

      Cons

      Very limited income for the first few year unless you get really lucky Your success is very highly dependent on 1) luck and 2) who your manager is. If your manager is competent and able to guide and teach you in the right path, you will do well. If you manager isn't, then you're better off not working there.
