Pros

If you can't find another job, keep looking!

Cons

This place is more like a cult than an employer. Notice that the CEO approval is 100%? Does that seem real or even possible with 2,500 employees? Hint: it isn't. At their semi-annual meetings they hype to company so much and ask the best boot-lickers to post glowing reviews here and other places to offset the negative reviews. That's why you see so many reviews posted just after the January and July meetings. The CEO Todd Browne is a college flunk-out huckster who is completely enamored with his own voice. He never shuts up and is always telling you how honest he is. Really? And the stock program? Just ask someone who tried to sell that crap.

Pros

Not only is there unlimited opportunity/commission, but there’s unlimited personal development. The leaders constantly are challenging me to think with principles, think big for my goals, and giving me resources to achieve those goals. The people I get to serve for my clients are to top division makers, influencers, and income earners in Austin and I’m honored that they trust us to serve them.

Cons

Building a business requires thinking big, thinking strategically, and getting out of my comfort zone. As with any business, the better you do the more problems you face and are challenges to solve.
