Pros
-unbelievably talented management. -Jeremy Wong, one of the sales managers, has taught me how to be a both good salesman and a great person. -Steve Levy is a unique combination of extreme financial knowledge and very good people skills. I have learned more from him in 6 months than 4 years of college. -staff is so helpful and friendly -home office in Pennsylvania makes being an adviser hassle free. They can answer any question you think of. -gorgeous office. very impressive to bring clients to. -simultaneously cooperative and competitive. -great culture in office. I'm good friends with most of my coworkers
Cons
-tough industry. the nation seems to be against the idea of life insurance. it takes lots of time to educate clients why it is such a pivotal financial tool. -sink or swim. management helps as much as they can, however it is a self driven business. if you are not disciplined, the industry will chew you up and spit you out -no food. many of my friends have lunch catered or full kitchens. this office only has the occasional batch of cookies. -low accountability/ too much freedom. people have the power to create their own schedules. many of them abuse it, and only show up to what is mandatory. -not much structure in the logistical processes (although this may be a pro depending on your personality)
