Advice to Senior Management
n/a
Pros
You get free life insurance, great health, dental, and vision benes, 2 weeks vacation time to start plus 5 sick days a year!
Cons
Not enough advancement happening within all departments, managment doesn't rerally provide much guidence as to different career options within the company, hardley any work from home options and not flexable with personal situations. When you work here it's great when you start but after 2 years your burnt out! The raises should be better for people that have been here longer too but they're not.
Advice to Senior Management
Get more personal with your employees and stop trying to mico manage!!! Try to be more helpful to employees that need it and help utlize more of what the company does offer to people who really need it!!! Also recognize your better employees and reward them for it, not your favorites!
Pros
Promotions based on production only, no politics. Not a lot of fees to get started. Can get sponsored to get series 6 and 63. Payment is quick. Getting overrides for training people is a great concept.
Cons
Bad reputation. Co-workers and leaders have no professional experience and no leadership or market knowledge. Too much focus on recruiting and no focus on skill building. Everyone wants to recruit so their recruits can set appointments for them. Limited amount of products. In trainings, they outwardly promote recruiting people, just to get their "list" of warm market, and they don't care if that person quits, as long as they get that persons "list" first.
Advice to Senior Management
Set your own appointments and show us how to do the same. Allow those that want to stay with the company to be a better financial advisor to our clients. Recruiting might add to the companies profits for paying the $25 per month for POL, but the company has a horrible reputation. Do more and give more to retain your workforce.
