Pros

Great company to work for if you are placed in a good market. They definitely give you all the training you need. Great experience.

Cons

Door to Door prospecting. Most Financial Advisors in the firm are too busy to help whenever you call upon them. They do not help you build your book of business at all.

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
