Pros
Position comes with a targeted market. You are given one or more Lutheran churches to work in. Most prospecting calls are lukewarm not cold. The marketing method works even in a down market and what you do really makes a difference in peoples lives.
Cons
Success largely depends on who you get as a mentor. The one week of formal training you get to start does not prepare you to fully function. Leadership will let you flounder without concern. You are on your own. Don't rock the boat. If you are a producer you can get away with anything. Product offerings are very narrow. New FA's although fully licensed are not allowed to sell individual stocks and bonds. System pushes propriatary life insurance and annuities.
