Pros

They sponsor you to get your financial licenses which if you can't get an elite company to pay for you, you get $500 or so if you pass half of them and it's worth finishing off anyways if you're serious about pursuing a career in finance.

Cons

Cognitive Dissonance forever. It's a legal pyramid scheme that hypes you up as wealth management financial professionals but in reality you're cold calling random school teachers trying to get them to invest in a 403b so you can split the commission with your boss. You don't even get a guaranteed salary until you make like $3000 in commission after the first year. Senior management is nonexistent except to give random trainings which are just hour long motivational speeches on getting creative on "prospecting" aka finding friends and family to ask to invest.
