Pros

Autonomy. No cap on how much you want to make in earnings. Team environment and support is there.

Cons

Amount and time span of having a salary needs to be adjusted. In certain market areas, it will take the new FA longer to generate a stable amount of gross commissions to survive. If you consider the attrition rate, money spent on training a new FA, providing a more stable salary would be beneficial to the company as a whole. Quarterly decreases in salary in this market is not the solution to lowering the attrition rate.

Pros

Great training program. They provide you with all the essential materials to pass the 7 and 66 exams. Nothing to worry about regarding those if you study enough.

Cons

Poor benefits package. Have to work long hours first few years and basically have to door knock until you find someone to trust you with their money. If you can't find them, your fired.
