Pros

For hard workers the sky’s the limits, you’re your own boss, they enable you to succeed and give you continual education to keep you sharp and able to help your clients ever changing financial needs. I like the long term offer of this career they offer a very generous pension plan, comp was far above the other companies. NYL the brand is a sure foot in the door for most clients due to their reputation and standings in our community. I found out before coming on board that thtey have the most Million dollar round table agents in the industry. This is great opportunity to make a very lucrative career. In so many words they supply the business office and staff and you are the boss of your own branch.

Cons

You are your own boss that means you have to be a master of your own time management. Sometimes the freedom you have in this business is the down falll of the newer agents. Income varies from month to month $10,000+ one month and $5000 the next, you have to manage your books accordingly for your overhead.
