Pros
Major pro of this business at Equitable is the flexibility and control you have over your schedule. Very client oriented business that allows you to interact with your clients on a daily basis, and every day is a different start/finish. Unlimited earning potential, and exponential increase in pay. You can choose salary + bonus, or bonus + commission. Ability to partner with other advisors to boost your clientele, and you can get into management (Vice President) with enough experience and leadership skills.
Cons
Taking the tests/getting licensed can take anywhere from 3-6 months, but you get reimbursed for the tests. Need to build your own clientele and prospect on a daily basis for your first couple of years in the business. Work more hours in the beginning, but work less hours down the road.

Pros
You get out what you put in, so compensation is a direct result of your commitment and work ethic so for the hardworking and driven, this is a fantastic role. Great support staff and management to guide you through the early years of your career and set up for the future. Wide range of 1 on 1 mentoring available from experts in all areas of the industry. Amazing company culture around the office(and more recently zoom calls and such).
Cons
Pretty slow start. This job has a bit of a startup cost and a learning curve. The first year or two is a lot of hard work that goes under paid for the most part but it all builds up that base as your time goes on. A lot of personal expenses. Licenses and such grow quite a bill year over year as well as other nickel and dime type expenses (office space, tech package, travel costs, etc). Odd hours sometimes based around the availability of clients/prospects
