Pros

You can make money here. The goal is reach Senior marketing director. They drive you to recruit. They do not teach you the products until you are selling them. These are your friends and family ( warm market) and you are relying on the SMD is not selling products they do not need or cannot afford.

Cons

They constantly have you a spending money to go to conventions, pay office fees. You have to recruit a certain number of people in a short period of time to move up. They tell you there is nobody out there like them. That is not true. Also if you leave WFG you lose all of your business. So you have your own business as long as you stay. There are other businesses out there that are better set up for the agent and the client. They are very limited as to the information they give clients. You are constantly trained on recruiting not financial expertise.

Pros

Strong Support & Mentorship The leadership typically provides mentors and upline sponsors who guide agents as they start. This mentorship can help with goal setting, sales strategies, and accountability. . Flexible Schedule As an agent, I had the freedom to build my business on my own terms. If you value flexibility and being your own boss, WFG supports that.

Cons

Commission-Based Compensation Compensation is heavily commission-based with no steady base pay, especially early on. This can make income unpredictable, particularly in the first 6–12 months. High Learning Curve While training exists, a lot of success depends on self-study, persistence, and trial/error in the field. Some find this challenging without strong prior sales experience.
