Svantaggi
Not what is advertised. They say you will be a "financial advisor" when in reality you are just a salesperson trying to sell anyone anything. My whole time there I felt like I was just another phone dialer from which the managers and everyone above me could potentially profit off of. They only want you to succeed and help you develop your phone skills because they can make money off of you. Even if you sell a plan you only get a small % of the commission, upper management keeps most of it. GET READY TO COLD CALL ALL DAY. Not only that , the leads they give you are garbage. People that have already been called multiple times. They also exploit your natural market, literally PRESSURE YOU ENDLESSLY to call all your family and friends and sell them something. THEY ARE MOSTLY STANDING FROM PROFITING OFF OF PEOPLE'S FAMILY/FRIENDS. Most people quit within months if they are smart enough. It was miserable, I absolutely hated it. All I did was cold call and DIDN'T MAKE A SINGLE PENNY. I was lucky enough to be "working" from home because of covid otherwise you actually HAVE TO PAY TO WORK THERE (tech fees, and other stuff). The only job where you PAY TO WORK THERE.... LIKE WHAT. It is a trap for recent graduates. DON'T FALL FOR IT. They say u can make 6 figures your first year..... yeah maybe if you are the wolf of wall street. WHAT A JOKE! The culture is horrible. Very inappropriate. I am very relaxed chill person but this definitely didn't feel right. something was off. A big lack of professionalism. The comments they make, etc...One of the managers made an EXTREMELY INAPPROPRIATE comment to me. I WAS ACTUALLY SHOCKED. I COULDN'T BELIEVE MY EARS.
