Pros

Friendly, established firm, and a nice educational structure.

Cons

Say they are a Christian firm but I only heard one person say "God bless" to me. Always got the impression I wasn't wanted and something else was going on behind the scenes.

Pros

Working for a faith-based company that does its best to practice Christian values in their operations. Financially stable with excellent insurance products. Ability to work independently or with joint fieldwork partners.

Cons

You reinvest most of your income into office rent, licensing fees, marketing, etc, so it's hard to make enough to support your own expenses plus office expenses. The sales goals for the insurance side of the business are difficult to acheive if you are not hard-charging, which can be contrary to Christian values. The compensation system was changed in 2013 and was so confusing that it was de-motivating. Regional management was quick to ask why you weren't meeting goals and slow to provide needed one-on-one consultation.
