Builds resilience but work can be repetitive - Anonymous McAdam Employee Review

- Opportunities to meet with families and clients and deliver life-altering financial help and advice and build career-long bonds with new people - Collaborative culture - Company growth has been consistent with new opportunities for advancement as we help more families - If you are looking for an environment that is growth oriented & opportunity to build a business for yourself with significant internal support (leads, marketing help, leadership, etc.), this is a great place to look

- As an advisor, starting off can be difficult since it is a very entrepreneurial career. It requires a lot of mental fortitude and an acknowledgement that failure will happen more times than success - No base salary to start (at least if you are a new advisor starting their practice) but there are other bonuses that are utilized to help income at the start of the career - Emotional competence is a must. Being able to handle highs and lows is very important - If working a normal 9 to 5 is your desire, it may not be a good fit (if you are looking to be an advisor)

There’s potential to earn a high income if things work out.

A lot of pressure is placed on relying on personal connections to build an initial client base. If you don’t already know many people who are willing to trust you with financial decisions, it can be really difficult to get started. It also takes a long time before being able to find clients outside of your own network.
