Vantaggi
Great training and partners really do want you to succeed (perhaps only because it helps THEIR bottom line), but regardless, do not listen to those who say partners don't care, because the better you do, the more money they make, so it doesn't make sense for them to bring you on and leave you to the wolves. Training is great, very knowledgeable partners and trainers, vibrant and fast paced atmosphere. Make your own schedule but initially expect to come in to the office quite a bit for training, etc.
Svantaggi
It'll take awhile to get paid. You first need to get PTAS contract approved, then develop the business and place 5 life policies and $1500 in FYC before they will trigger you to TAS and pay you. In the meantime you are going to be spending money on gas and tolls to drive all over creation to meet with prospects, you need your own computer, in my case I needed to buy suits. During PTAS need to have some savings, a part time job, or a well off spouse/significant other to get rolling. Realistically give it 6 months before you can start supporting yourself. Will be hard work and long hours but if you enjoy the work it's not an issue. Must be thick skinned. You WILL be contacting friends and family, not necessarily to sell to but at least for referrals, so make sure you are comfortable with that.
