Pros

Lots of freedom. Genuinely nice people work at every level.

Cons

You are judged on the volume of life insurance sales and annuity sales. Period. There is little incentive not encouragement for a financial advisor to learn or grow giving financial advice. But, if you want to push a product, you’ll score. No base. Lower payout rates to other companies.

Pros

Thrivent is a faith based work environment that provides financial services to Christians across america. I have a undergrad in business and a Masters of Divinity so this is the perfect blending of faith and finances for me. I've been working at Thrivent for 2 1/2 years and have yet to see a negative move organizationally. That's not to say that their aren't negative people in the organization, just like every organization!!! Thrivent provides a wonderful work environment with major opportunities for financial security (with no guarantees). If you are looking for a mere job, this probably isn't the position for you - BUT - if you are looking for an entrepreneurial opportunity, then this is your chance! Great Benefits Good Compensation Time Freedom Social Impact

Cons

Thrivent positions itself as a financial services company for everyone regardless of socio-economic position, but it is difficult to compensate Financial professionals based off of this stance. Compensation models tend to favor higher net worth clients. Truthfully, this is a problem for the industry as a whole and is a hard nut to crack.
