Pros

I have been working at FFG for the past 10 years. I have gained an abundance of clients and have developed personal relationships with each of them. FFG provides educational events for clients as well as Client Appreciation events. These are my favorite because I get to appreciate my clients, I would not be where I am today without them.

Cons

It's a hard industry to build your book of business but if you work hard within the first 5 years it all pays off.

Pros

A great way to get into the Financial Services Industry and learn some of the most important life lessons about saving money and preparing for your and your family's future. The management staff is all very well informed and more than willing to go out of their way and help you with just about anything. If you do your part, the opportunity to grow with the company is amazing and you can earn your promotions and raises in a very short amount of time. Ultimately I see myself running a division of the company in a pretty short period of time.

Cons

Similar to college, it costs some money to get accredited. It costs a ton less obviously, but there is that initial cost ($489). However the company will bonus you $500 on your 1st promotion to try and help you offset that cost. Also, it is not a typical work schedule, so you have to be self motivated to schedule appointments, see clients, and get your work done. If you need micromanaging, this is not the position for you.

I want to be clear why there was a cost of $489 to initially start. This money is for the employees training/study materials and state exam for Life Insurance licensing. Because employees are essentially running their own business and gaining their own clients this is why they are responsible for the cost themselves; their earned paycheck is through commissions that are personally produced. This review is back from 2012. Now in 2019, the structure of the company has drastically changed. We are currently not hiring nor have we continued to recruit since 2013.
