Pros

Survive and thrive. Do you own your book or does your employer own you? This company has an incredible culture, great training program and everyone seems willing to help. This career path is not for the faint of heart. Commission based. It’s what you make of the opportunity.

Cons

A focus on commission but again if you’re willing to work you should want a commission based opportunity because you are in control. Not the employer.

Pros

The autonomy and flexibility is awesome, paired with high earning potential. Pretty good training and mentoring opportunities, but the same opportunities aren't offered to all new advisors.

Cons

It was not clear that there is no real base salary, only an upfronting of commissions. Even that is low. Meanwhile, there is no flexibility or accommodations to be made if you can't hit the expected numbers, and if you don't hit said number at the end of a quarter, you'll be out of a job. It's perform or don't work here. Be prepared to make cold calls.
