Pros

Great work environment, especially for a kid out of college. Plenty of stuff to do outside of work with your coworkers with happy hours and company outings. If you're serious about making money, then this is a place you can make six figures or more within a few years, if not sooner. You literally see all the hours and hard work payoff in your paychecks when you start making commission consistently. It is really hard work and you need to put a lot of time into your book of business but it will pay you back if you continue to grind it out. New hires have to understand that this is sales and it is a numbers game. The people who quit/get fired after a year are the people who try to coast through the day-to-day grind.

Cons

The work-life balance is tough to manage for the first 18 months or so. It gets a little easier once you hit the successful broker mark and get an LAET on your account, but you will be in the office 50+ hours most weeks. Working half days on Saturdays is rough too but it is a much easier schedule now than when I started.

Pros

Frat House environment if that's what you're into.

Cons

Where do I even start.... My first week there the sales manager, whose account I was supposed to look over and be trained by, was gone for the whole week. The desk spot they put me at was next to this JBL party box, making it virtually impossible to communicate over the phone. When you're in the training phase you literally do all the work for the account manager, then you're expected to make cold calls to people that want no part in TQL. When you do get someone on the phone and make a sale, you wont be seeing any of that money. They have a commission draw set up where you have to be making a certain amount of revenue before you can make commission- thus leaving you to the measly 43k salary. These recruiters and managers SELL you a false dream, the turnover rate there is astronomical for a reason. They will hire anyone that'll learn the system, use them for labor for 6 months, cut them when they don't meet the ridiculous KPI metrics. To be actually successful here you either have to work near 60+ hours a week for YEARS waking at 4am to "snipe" accounts that have been released due to inactivity, or be handed an account by a retiring SR level manager. RUN from this company!
