Pros
Fully remote environment with flexible, unlimited PTO No cold calling; focus remains on high-value client engagement Exposure to advanced, sophisticated planning strategies early in tenure Direct ownership of client relationships and outcomes end-to-end Tangible ability to impact clients’ lives in meaningful, measurable ways Early-stage firm offers real influence over processes, systems, and direction Leadership is receptive; ideas and feedback are genuinely considered
Cons
Infrastructure, systems, and processes are still being built and refined Requires comfort operating in ambiguity and a fast-evolving environment Not a traditional 9–5 role; expect longer hours, particularly during the first 6–12 months Ramp-up period can be demanding as you develop technical and client-facing proficiency
