Pros

Good Salary Great work Colleagues Accessible office Nice amount of freedom Free water

Cons

Upper Management Equipment Working hours 12-8 Call Centre Based Although they have a landline they recommend you use your mobile. No payment for using your mobile though No pension or option of it Very hard to earn commission. 0 Training absolutely none. On my first day I was given a few sheets of health insurance plans. 6 Hours later was told to make a phone call!!! Target of 8000 units a month. This is broken down weekly. IT STILL APPLIES IF YOU ARE ON ANNUAL LEAVE.. You are targeted on annual leave. Sales reported in a what's app group so your phone is constantly been hopped off. Told in the interview you will make 60-70 k easily. Yes its true if you go in and are getting life leads, health leads, IP leads, investment leads, pension leads and have a very big base yourself that you can sell to of family in friends. If you have none of the above you are at nothing! Just over all not a good place to work. Only reason I gave it two stars is because of the working colleagues. The floor management are great however have the same targets as normal staff so you don't want to take to much of their time up.

Awful

Pros

There isn’t a lot to say here. More personal time that some jobs

Cons

No training, no support. Awful leads coming through. Very old school. Get a sale no matter what, whether it’s right for the client(customer) or not. This is not what a financial advisor is meant to do. Zero progression opportunities no matter what they say.

Pros

Good starting point as in you grasp the work but it’s not permanent or you’d loose your marbles.

Cons

Where does one start,You have to use your own mobile (not told this in the interview) bring your own stationary, unreliable higher management, no security (if you have a bad month you could be out on your ear)unrealistic targets (targets start the day you start)even if your on holidays your target doesn’t stop,nitpick every thing you do, zero loyalty to staff, the whole interview process is a lie, I could go on all night and night but you get the gist
