Pros

Freedom to work how and when you want. Very little to no micro-management. Incredible amount of earning power if you stick with it 5+ years or have people working under you.

Kontras

The interviewer completely misrepresents the position as being a financial advisor that helps people with their finances. In reality you are a sales person that will end up mainly selling life insurance to people who don't need it. Very unethical sales strategies. The best way to make money is basically lie (mostly by omission but sometimes outright) about the products features, and if you are an ethical person you will go broke from paying gas and food expenses. No help and very little pay first 2 years. More of a fraternity than office. They call it a multi-level marketing strategy, which are fancy words for pyramid scene. Your boss will make money on everything you sell. Working there will give you absolutely no skills or experience that will be transferable to another employer.

Pros

Complete freedom to build your book of business anmd schedule.

Kontras

Horrendous place to start. Managers run their own practice and have little to no time to actually help you outside of your joint meetings so you're on your own. They only give you 2 options to get clients, cold calling or their retirement benefits group through schools. Basically the whole advising piece is to just to sell life insurance and annuities. The support staff is thin so you're kind of on your own with paperwork and compliance docs. They just genuinely offer you nothing. No help with covering costs (you pay for all your licensing and marketing materials), they even charge you for using the company laptop and fees for programs you will never use. They will mislead you about the commission payouts and you only really get something if you get them to buy an annuity or life insurance. If you also have a remaining balance of any fees when you leave, they will literally sending you threatening letters demanding the money and threaten you with claims court if you don't pay it back.
