Pros
The opportunity is limitless regarding moving up the ladder. If you want to go from agent to managing partner, there's a clear cut path to follow. There's no cap on what you make as an agent, which is my favorite part. What you work for - you earn! The Development Managers, Trainers, and Partners at New York Life go above and beyond to help the agents succeed. You just have to put in the effort! It's a commission-only business, so if you don't work, you don't get paid!
Cons
You're on your own to grow your business. You find your own market(s), generate your own leads, and work with what you have (or don't have) to make it as an agent. It's tough coming from only having worked the standard 9-5 job, and any real residual is recognized after a full year. No sales, no money. There's no salary and training allowance is paid upon sale of products years 1-3 after hire.
