Pros

Culture is one of a kind. I like the fact that there are shared values (but only If you hold to these values). But you have to really dig to discover how these align with who you are yourself. Then when the tough times come (and there will be many tough times, especially as you're starting out), you won't be so fickle to throw in the towel as easily.

Cons

There are things that you just can't control (like customer/prospect responses)... that's just life though, isn't it... life is hard (duh)... no surprise here.

Pros

They have allowed the HBA’s (home based associates) to remain remote

Cons

Micromanagers, they say they are okay if you want to apply to another department within the firm but the minute you do it’s like you get a target on your back. The pay doesn’t match the workload and the word is that you have to quit and then come back to make what you should already be getting paid. Benefits are terrible but 401k is pretty good
