Work in a competitive environment, earn a ridiculous paycheck
Pros
It has been said before and I will say it again, if you work hard at TQL you WILL be successful. Yes, some brokers are given great accounts, but this happens very rarely and great accounts are only given to those who have proven themselves to be successful brokers. Despite some of the numbers posted here it is a fact that there are at least 100 brokers earning 6 figures +, and over 400 brokers earn over $50K. Once you have an established business, management will DEFINITELY stay out of your hair and you can expect a lot of freedom with your time. Also, the reason there aren't a lot of people that have been here more than 5 years is that the company is still very young.
Cons
TQL is addressing high turnover by becoming EXTREMELY selective in their hiring. Not sure if this is the best avenue, as many trainees are being held back due to lack of replacements. Be prepared to completely "knock the socks off" of the person interviewing you if you want the job.
