Pros

I honestly can’t think of any.

Cons

If you work in Indiana you are part of the clique, but if you work in another state they look down on you and talk down to you. I would never recommend anyone become a financial advisor there. The guy who runs the program is a narcissistic lier who treats you poorly.

Pros

Hours are good... Mileage is nice

Cons

Upper management does not make retail side feel valued or like they are an important part of the team. When an inter office issue occurs they sweep it under the rug or pretend it is not an issue. Processes are antiquated which adds more work for some branches and other branches stand around.
