Pros

Paid training Talk a good game at 1st. We are here to help you become successful

Cons

If you do not have 120+ personal contacts that will become clients , your SOL & they grt rid of you They may prevent you from getting another job in the industry by asking for a massive Training reimbursement. This may change as It’s actually illegal in some states. But it is in the contract. This is a big deal as the pay at most Advisory Companies is poverty. Not even sure how they could collect this money back because the pay initially is very bad They may, and in my case challenge your unemployment, if you choose to apply. This is pretty petty, I have an appeal that is ongoing. They are such a conservative company that they don’t advertise. You are your own advertising machine. No leads. And while they say, they’ll give you some starter accounts, i did not get any, You only get paid in the first five years based on new assets. This could be a lucrative business to be in, but it takes a lot of time

Pros

They have allowed the HBA’s (home based associates) to remain remote

Cons

Micromanagers, they say they are okay if you want to apply to another department within the firm but the minute you do it’s like you get a target on your back. The pay doesn’t match the workload and the word is that you have to quit and then come back to make what you should already be getting paid. Benefits are terrible but 401k is pretty good
