Pros

If you need to get a foot in the industry and get your licenses, this may be a good first step.

Cons

Depending on what team you get put on, who your manager is etc, you may have a different experience, but in general there is a crushing case load and high stress and low pay. No one can keep up with the volume of work, which causes tons of mistakes to clients and tons of complaints coming in your phone and inbox. You'll get yelled at daily, spend tons of time filing complaints, and there is no support to find answers. They promised a structured training class, but there was basically no training. There's an impossible maze of policies and procedures to navigate through, managers don't have answers to the complicated issues that come up all day, you're left for yourself trying skype co workers to find a half way right answer to anything. If you genuinely care about giving good service to clients, you will find this place absolutely frustrating.

Pros

Amazing management. Great opportunities for growth. Corporate environment yet still able to be a business owner in a sense.

Cons

Compliance could loosen up a bit. It seems it is getting harder to get things done with all the red tape around certain marketing ideasz

Pros

Can provide great income if you can sell. Very strong resume builder for someone coming straight out of school or from another field.

Cons

The name of the game is planning for the sake of selling the robo advisor.
