Pros

They are very accommodating and the leaders are very respectful. They give interns ample opportunity for interns to make a difference

Cons

While they do their best to develop new financial products, a lot of the processes get bogged down because their is a bureaucratic element in the company

Pros

- Working in recruiting we were allowed a lot of latitude planning our appointments and days. - Worked with a lot of truly good people. - Faith based, and that does come through with culture. - Mileage paid - Good interaction with other state offices (recruiters) - Pleasant Regional Field Office Managing Partner. Buffered a lot of the stress

Cons

Long evenings. Overnight stays several (3-5) per month. There is a lot of pressure from the corporate office to contract new representatives. Weekly accountability and pressure meetings. Suit and tie every day. Driving your own vehicle Key activity is meeting with people to get referrals. Many of the areas have been covered many times before, so getting tougher to solicit and receive meetings.

Pros

You have a lot of control over what you spend your time doing. There is great upside financial opportunity if you can get off to a good start. If you struggle early on the rate of success drops tremendously.

Cons

The cost of doing business is really high between office rent, computer fees, and marketing costs you can really dig yourself a hole quickly. There is very little interest in whether you do well or not.
