Pros

Being able to spend more time on each customer. Liked helping clients

Cons

Turns out to be a MLM and job scam with the directors taking money from the advisers for ‘seminar courses’ and agency charging for ‘expenses.’ All this goes into their pockets on top of their overriding. Look out for a particular agency starting with I. Expect your career to go downhill.

Pros

Market rate salaries and good bonus scheme/benefits (Although pay scales are laughable, you tend to be on the lower end..)

Cons

Toxic Environment, A real problem with bullying and a weak HR Dept that won't deal with it head on (Risk averse). Too many meetings, too much politics, too many bureaucrats and as a result you are overworked and stressed and adding no real value to the company! Leaders have no backbone and can't make decisions (or are afraid to) you are generally treated like a naughty schoolboy.

Pros

Almost complete schedule flexibility. Lots of interaction with a variety of individuals that you are able to learn from and also educate.

Cons

I am comfortable with the idea of production based compensation. The problem is when you have absolutely no control over your level of production! When it comes to money and savings, the more people you meet with does not necessarily translate to higher compensation.
