Pros

Culture is great, fun co-workers, out-of-office activities often

Cons

Do not take this job if you are straight out of college and have little - no savings. The LinkedIn post says $70k-$100k for first year employees, which is not true at all. I knew people who had been working there for 3+ months, and hadn't made a SINGLE CENT. They aren't transparent about job at all before you come into office. For example, I found out the day before I started that you go in at 7:30 am and don't get off till past 6pm most days. Also, all you do for the first couple months is cold call people pretty much all day. The licensing process takes ~ 3 months before you can even go in the office and start. They say they reimburse you for these exams (which are around $800 total, plus another ~$120 to get registered with fingerprints, etc.) once you get into the office, but really you have to hit your "fast start" before they give you that money back, which takes most people at least 6 months. You're relying solely on your manager to make you money at first, and some of the managers don't care about you or your success. Overall fun place to work at and there is definitely room to grow and succeed, but it will take years of dirty work and 60+ hour work-weeks. Good luck though.

Pros

Great system to learn the industry. The training and support on how to actually run meetings, give valuable advice and build a book of business is unmatched.

Cons

The con of being financial advisor in general is you must obtain clients. That mean putting yourself out there and asking for business.

Pros

There are no pros whatsoever for working at Florida Financial Advisors.

Cons

There is no salary even though they said there would be one during the interview process. You aren't trained to be a financial advisor. You are trained to sell insurance and annuities. Even if you do tough it out, you will be subjected to weekly cult-like CEO worship and a multi-level marketing style organization structure. The only way to succeed long-term is to go into management and make money off of people you pull into taking the job.
