Good first job out of college

Pros

Perfect place to work if you are unsure about what you want to do straight out of college. Commission can be high, but requires 60+ work weeks, which can be tough for a new grad.

Cons

Work/life balance is not so great because of the amount of time you have to dedicate to the job if you plan on being successful.

Pros

I would venture to say that most of the negative reviews here, are ones that come from people who either think the grass is always greener on the other side... Or they weren't paying attention in the interview process. The job is not portrayed as "easy" and the pay is structured to encourage growth. It is demanding (all jobs in this company are demanding) .If you pay new grads $90k, they will be lazy and entitled, thus the "competitive" start + commission. TQL offers a career path... Or at least a starting point. You will be tested in the beginning, as my recruiter informed me. This company requires a certain type of motivated personality. Not everyone has what it takes. LOTS of young men and women make great careers/money here. This company is going places. They are always adapting and changing to suit the employees and the markets. They demand only the best employees (the weak ones don't stick around) and thus demand the best service to beat the competition. Awesome workplace, great personalities, fun times and very rewarding. Management is great and very hands off. Suggestions and ideas for improvement are accepted.

Cons

Not too many cons. Work life balance, but that's all relative. Brokers may need a little more time (or faster incentives) to hit success goals.

Best Job I've Ever Had

Pros

I can't understand how some of these are so negative. The only one that can stop you at TQL is yourself. You can say corporate brainwashing or long hours all you want -- the fact is, at TQL, you are only limited by what you are willing to do to make as much money as possible. And yes, the idea is to make money -- so if you don't make money, you're not going to make it here; but that only communicates to management that you aren't willing to put the work in to make yourself successful. The job requires driven, money-motivated people. That's it. If you aren't, you can still work at TQL in several bonus-supplemented positions that are not tracked by revenue. The environment and camraderie between coworkers is outstanding and I honestly look forward to going to work every day. It's a job that can change your life if you come in with the right mentality and understand what's expected of you -- you can make all kinds of money, sure, but you also make lifelong friends and you are recognized for your accomplishments within the company. On top of that, TQL has such a small percentage of the market share in the industry that personal growth is comparatively easy compared to other industries. I didn't understand the full magnitude of this opportunity until I began selling.

Cons

The only con that I can really think of is what happened to me personally during my training phase after I was hired -- you are assigned to a successful broker (or two) to be trained on how to do your job and become efficient at it for 8 weeks. The system is great, but the broker you're assigned to can forget that they aren't your boss and treat you pretty harshly. But I got through it by keeping my head up and realizing 4 months was all it was going to be until I was on my way to making cash.
