Pros

Great Management Great Operations Healthy work/life balance Benfits are great for a Large Company

Cons

Expectations to build referral business with a variety of networks (Banks, CPA's, current clients, new clients, etc...) can be very overwhelming. Base pay... low for this area... When sales are good, life is good. Slow months when your working your tail off make it difficult to live off of low take home pay. Turnover is high.... mostly due to more money offered.

Very high stress, you need to perform or else you will be miserable. Monthly quotas so the pressure never stops
