Pros

They will sponsor you for SIE or 7 and 63

Cons

What is the turnover, and what percentage of the reps are delivering at quota? At this position you will need to speak with many people who have under 50K in their empower 401k and turn a call where they expect to quickly engage transactionally. So the initial terms of engagement are working against you. Unless you meet their statistics for quick triage they will not sponsor you for a CFP or other certifications. They want to to keep you in a high number of engagements with low value clients rather than see you develop skills which will enable you to deliver high value consultation. An ideal job for the top 2% at an inbound telemarketing company which handles inbound calls for fish oil supplements who wants quick advancement to the $110K category

Pros

Empower fully supports work life balance. They also support and encourage community service. I like the fact that they match not only by monetary contributions, they also match actual volunteer hours with money. Management at all levels is committed and invested in you professionally and personally.

Cons

None that I have found.

Pros

Many smart people genuinely want to grow & succeed; An excellent long term strategic vision backed by long term oriented investors; Ample growth opportunities at a business that is very well positioned for long term growth. Leaders that genuinely care about their people. Remote work is truly an advantage - just the lack of a commute makes a large difference. Opportunity to be at the ground level of a company that will develop a much stronger national brand over the next decade.

Cons

Delivery & Execution are areas that are truly challenging in the high growth/evolutionary environment that Empower is in today. Cultural changes are happening within the business that create some competing priorities, though Sr. Leaders continue to lead through this. Working with people across the US means don't expect a normal schedule - early / late starts and working lunches are the norm.
