Pros

Freedom to set your schedule and freedom to sell products best for the client. You are not captive. Had a good mentor

Cons

beginning training was rough and the schedule constantly changed. Advisors that held the training did not want to be there. Also all the office costs made it difficult for new advisors to stay ahead. New advisors kept falling off financing because they had trouble covering all the expenses.

Great programs for experience in fortune 100.

Pros

• Decent benefits • Some good individual contributors and colleagues.

Cons

• Extremely high workload — regularly expected to work 60-80+ hours per week • Constant scope changes with unrealistic expectations and impossible deadlines • Upper management was disconnected and showed little concern for employee well-being • Highly political environment where internal politics often outweighed actual performance • Mass layoffs that eliminated roughly half the engineering team, followed by offshoring many roles to India — even after many of us had dedicated 4+ years to the company • Extremely stressful and unsustainable culture leading to widespread burnout
