Pros

You can get your licenses quickly but you have to pay for them yourself. There is not really any other positive thing to say here

Cons

They will make you call all your friends and family even before you are licensed and sell them high-priced and poor performing annuities and whole life insurance policies. This is a 100% commission job and they will charge you for everything such as stamps to mail out documents to clients

Pros

Internship was a valuable learning experience. Largely highly legit tasks and no getting coffee. Great resume booster.

Cons

Unpaid, responsibilities didn't vary greatly so after a while, not much left to learn.

Pros

There were no pros at this place of employment. Very disturbing experience.

Cons

In my time at this company I witnessed numerous client complaints from unsuitable investment recommendations and poor customer service. There reports of dishonest activities, taking advantage of customers, driven by greed with a total disregard of industry regulations. You can read about illegal kickbacks and ponzi schemes with charges and litigation pending. The sales force does not meet regulatory requirements to conduct business as registered investment advisors. Testimonials from employees and customers reveal disturbing facts about compliance violations, unethical behavior, and criminal activities.
