Pros

There are some wonderful people at Thrivent, good benefit package, generous benevolence side for members, does good work with Habitat for Humanity.

Cons

Divided culture, lack of promised support for new FRs , favoritism, overhead for FRs way too high, especially when compared with others in the industry - must pay for own office/supplies/marketing/technology, etc., and mostly the financial product management side has no idea what the fraternal management side is doing. There is a huge divide which is problematic because both sides participate the hiring/support process for FRs. A lot of promises are made and not kept, lots of balls dropped, lots of waste. Proceed with caution and get everything in writing!

Pros

Would have been a good opportunity IF it went through.

Cons

BEWARE! They do not disclose a very long and tedious interview process. 3 interviews with a post interview call. Background check, credit check, amongst multiple items to complete in portal. Many emails to respond to. Speaking with 4+employees throughout the process. Did NOT disclose that start date was 3 months post job posting.
