New York Life reviews

New York life can do a better job at being transparent in the interview stage of the process. They show you the perks, but do not share that it can be tough if you don't have a savings or significant other to help you financially when you hit rough patches. They don't share all the fees they charge you to work for them life desk, portal, ect.They don't tell you that you lose some important bonuses your second year. They don't tell you your contractual requirements during the interview, only after. They don't talk about reversals and how that can hurt your business. They don't tell quick they will let you go at the end of the year if you did not meet your contractual requirements. Also, depending on the office you work out of, there can be too many meetings that take you away from sales, which is never good.

Hard to keep a straight face while pretending to take anyone in this organization seriously. Being forced to deal with the fact that your career is dependent upon people who pretend to be Financial Advisors but can't even pass the Series 6 on the first try, much less the 7. Having to keep your mouth shut about public disclosures on google and brokercheck.org that management blatently lies about to clients, prospects and employees including bankruptcies, fraud charges involving former mayors of Atlanta, FINRA licenses that don't exist, etc. Having to look at yourself in the mirror after pretending all day that an Insurance license qualifies anyone to give advice on retirement planning. Keeping yourself from breaking out in hysterical laughter in meetings led by people with extremely low IQs who talk down to you.
