Pros

In theory you control your own schedule and have the freedom to build your own business. Partners in theory have a fair amount of autonomy to grow their region and help to support advisors. They do support a number of charities but they reworked the system so HQ has even more power over where those dollars go than they did before.

Cons

The stated theory above does not actually happen the further you get from Minnesota and Wisconsin. Basically this is just a bunch of old school sales folks forcing product on people using Christ as their way of getting people to trust them. Had a manager tell me I wasn't even allowed to have an opinion until after 6 years. Got railroaded by the regional manager and driven out less than a week after a review where I was told I was doing well.

Pros

The work/life balance is great with the option to work from home in some positions. Tuition reimbursement.

Cons

Management does not see talent and plays favorites on who to promote. Diversity is slim because of management only choosing certain people for certain jobs, projects, etc.

Variety of work, nice people, smaller company, good location, not crazy hours, good cafeteria food, volunteer opportunities, nice building, onsite parking

Cons

Passive aggressive, limited turnover (this is the way we've always done it), limited opportunities, people should be let go that
