Pros
The collective mindset everyone has of developing their individual practices together really energizes a positive culture of support and collaboration rather than competition. The training and tools management gives for personal development really helps actualize how one can have success in this business and sets us up for long-term advancement.
Cons
The aspect of earning your keep is great in the long run, but it seems too many people come into the job without having the right expectations set. If there was more transparency that new advisors will have to work very hard for a while just building up their practice during recruitment, instead of pushing how high of earnings potential there is in this career, it would help make sure people come in with the right mindset in how they want to structure this career.
