Pros

Great for self starters and you get sponsored for your series 7, 66, and life and health giving you the ability to do everything from insurance to managed money.

Cons

Management gets the most comp on Vul's and Va's so the training is specifically geared to those products and services if you want to call it training at all.

Pros

Accessible stepping stone into the industry. Flexibility

Cons

Little transparency for employees, high pressure annuities and insurance sales with little real education or support on product or sales practice knowledge. Expect long hours while you learn to do recordkeeping and support work on your own while trying to meet goals that make sense for someone with a few years of prior experience, staff to help with paperwork and recordkeeping, and a decent lead funnel. You may not get any of these depending on branch and territory but you will still have a performance goal to keep your base pay and benefits that feels absurd to the new entrants they primarily target for recruitment.
