Pros

Thrivent is not a "nonprofit" 501c3 it is a "not-for-profit"501c8 .....this allows it to give back to communities

Cons

Although they say you need to be a Christian to be a Thrivent Member.....you do not need to be a Christian to work there. Yeah.......don't drink the Kool-Aid. They preach, "Jesus Loves Joint Field Work" to get you to work with more experienced reps (which you would think they want to help).....this just cuts your commission in half while bettering management's chances to close business for their overrides (they could care less about you). You are a 1099 employee - 100% Commission.......they say, "You eat what you kill".....yep that's correct. If you do not have a big money cushion you will not survive. This company is full of egos and arrogance (it's financial services).......don't get lost in the "Christianity" element.....it' s a smoke screen. Go work for a more reputable company that doesn't make you pay for every little thing (laptop, software, Zoom, Facebook etc.). Run.......Run Fast!!
