Pros

Can make money quick....if your lucky

Cons

Company was great when it started. Expanded too quick and have had to make a lot of cuts over the past year. You will not have a career here for more than 2 years as a broker. NTG will let you go for slipping sales margins at some point or another. The more you make the more is expected until they let you go and keep your accounts. When I joined I had hoped this company wouldn't follow this model, but the more money they borrow and the bigger their debt becomes, they have gone more and more into the TQL model of hiring you kids, making them do sales calls, letting them go and keeping the business they bring in.

The people make work easier and enjoyable.

Logistics is constantly changing. This is not a company issue, but you have to be prepared to stay on your toes and adjust on the fly in this industry.

Pros

NTG was a place where I thought I would be long term. Working in the Dallas office, I genuinely felt like I had found a home. I enjoyed everyone I met and the friendships I made along the way. The memories I made with my hiring class are ones I’ll never forget. I sincerely hope our paths cross again. I’d also like to thank my managers for their exceptional leadership. I truly gained valuable skills that I’ll carry with me into my next role. The same goes for everyone I met in NTG’s Austin office during my visit.

Cons

As for the companies decision, I have a lot of thoughts. From my perspective, this came down to numbers on a spreadsheet. What wasn’t seen was the work that many of us put in behind the scenes during a very difficult market, often working stale accounts that had little chance of converting because of past relationships and mistakes. I strongly disagree with the decision. That said, I can honestly say I gave this job everything I had and more. I left it all on the field, and I’ll always be proud of that. Despite how things ended, I’m grateful for my experience at NTG, the people I met, and everything I learned along the way. I’m excited to see what I can accomplish in my next role and where this next chapter takes me.
