Pros

Free pizza every Wednesday, you get to dress up in nice, fancy suits and stay in a "hotel" for up to six months!

Cons

Prey on people's fear and greed, hours are not flexible and you are not the owner of your business as the hiring manager purported to be when you were first courted, cold calling and new recruit turnover is high.

Pros

Teaches you to present materials professionally and build lasting relationships with clients.

Cons

Everything else. Management here is a joke. Once you leave and a client decides to cancel their contract, AXA bills you for the advanced commissions. That's not a problem and I agree money should be reimbursed. However, agents who take over your newly acquired client may churn the account (cancel their existing account and make them open another one within AXA to increase their application count to meet the monthly quota) or simply give bad service making the client want to transfer to a better institution.
