Lack of Guidance

Pros

Freedom of schedule and ability to grow your business and prospect any way you choose.

Cons

You are told you'll be joining a team with great coaching, but their advisor model for trainees is to churn and burn. They have associates call terrible leads and the managers are not supportive enough to truly coach and develop an advisor who wants to be a serious professional.
