Pros

The “came from the bottom & now I’m on top” stories that seem *very* believable. People forced to talk & be nice to me.

Cons

1) People forced to talk & be nice to me; it just gets weird & awkward. Please stop. 2) $100 to get access to the website? I’m told that the person who invited you gets a cut of it. 3) The whole “we’re out here helping people”....with hidden high commission products & encouraging people with no financial background (let alone college degrees) to plan families’ financial roadmaps?? The people who buy their products deserve to have their money taken.

Pros

Strong Support & Mentorship The leadership typically provides mentors and upline sponsors who guide agents as they start. This mentorship can help with goal setting, sales strategies, and accountability. . Flexible Schedule As an agent, I had the freedom to build my business on my own terms. If you value flexibility and being your own boss, WFG supports that.

Cons

Commission-Based Compensation Compensation is heavily commission-based with no steady base pay, especially early on. This can make income unpredictable, particularly in the first 6–12 months. High Learning Curve While training exists, a lot of success depends on self-study, persistence, and trial/error in the field. Some find this challenging without strong prior sales experience.
