Vantaggi
Unlimited Earning Potential--Roughly 50% of employees who have been at TQL for two or more years make over 100k. People you work with--you won't get along with everybody but in general going to work is a lot of fun and that is because of the people you work with Technology-- Top notch. Nobody in the industry has the technology TQL does to help you succeed Flexibility- Once you have a steady book of buisness you essentially work your customers schedules as opposed to 8-5. Thats not to say you can never come to work, but you get a lot more work/life balance once you are established.
Svantaggi
Self Motivated/Hard work-- You can not succeed in this job without going the extra mile. Management will not stand over your shoulder asking you to put the hours in, however 8-5 is not going to cut it if you want to make it big here. If this is a Con then I suggest you get a gov't job where they will pay you for breathing. It takes long hours to set yourself apart from the rest of the brokers in this industry. If you can't committ 100% seek employment elsewhere. Work/Life balance--When I first started it didnt bother me. I had a wife and no children and I loved the hussle and non stop grinding. When I had my first child this changed. It can be tough at times to balance spending time with family and getting your hussle on every day. However with that said I have also provided a life for my family that I could never have acheived this quickly elsewhere. I am 27 years old and make over 120k per year. My wife doesn't work. I would personally say its worth it, but again if you can't handle that then seek employment elsewhere. Stress--There is a ton of stress in this job. I mostly felt it when I first started because you are afraid of losing your job if you don't produce. Its a pass/fail job and if you fail you are out. As I grew my buisness and did it over a longer period of time ( I have been working here for almost 4 years) I learned to seperate work stress from my daily life and really have a good handle on it now. It takes time to get used to but once you do its not as bad as people make it out to be. I think the better question would be " what job will pay me 100-150k per year and give me zero stress and wonderful work/life balance?" Lack of "true" time off-- This isnt TQL, this is sales. I hate the fact that I can't take a real vacation where i can leave my phone at home and do whatever I want. I would love to turn my phone off and take two days to recharge the batteries, but it's not possible is most sales jobs. Its a Con, but again IMO its well worth it to be able to go out and buy whatever I want without checking my acct every 5 mins and living paycheck to paycheck like I used to.
