      Pros

      I have been surprised by the amount of training provided to start a career as a Financial Advisor. We have been training for 5 months and we are almost done. We have been paid during the whole training period. EJ is making a massive investment into us.

      Cons

      I joined as they were starting up a new training system for FAs. There have been a few quirks in the program. Some delays in our schedules and I believe they'll be ironed out.

      Pros

      Good training from home office. Good resources from WEB’s.

      Cons

      Where to start. The recruiter tells you you don’t have to door knock, you build your own business. You can but you will get no help from anyone unless you door knock. Because that’s what they had to do. If you are young and no experience they give you a 20 million dollar book. Which they immediately lose half of the book. The only think the local leadership does is pass out the kool aid. You will never get anything unless you are a relative or friend of leadership. Horrible experience so stay away. You are better of and will be treated better at an IMO.
