Pros

Most other advisors are incredibly helpful and supportive. Individuals in the field truly do care about you. Work life balance is good. Flexibility with scheduling.

Cons

If you don’t want to knock on doors for 8 hours a day for 1-3 years, don’t work here. Home office only trains you to prospect; the rest of the training is non-existent or very weak. Home office says they’ll support you the whole way, but don’t give you the training to actually support an office.

Pros

- Decent benefits programs. - Teammates who cared about the quality of work they provided and the people they worked with. - Direct superiors who were people of integrity that I respect immensely and wish nothing but the best for.

Cons

- Recent removal of remote work for all associates regardless of how long they had worked remotely previously (13 years in my case). This push to onsite work will damage long term profitability and likely cause a mass exodus of talented associates (if it has not already). - Massive amount of offshore outsourcing that has greatly reduced the quality of work at the home office. - Lack of flexibility regarding work schedules that has severely damaged work-life balance.
