Pluspunten

Possibility to get licensed, but at your own expense and there is no salary.

Minpunten

The worst experience in my life: zero support after licensing - Y.O.Y.O (you on your own); AXA mandatory training was very poor; my office space was not ready when I started, my desk phone did not work and I my business cards "by mistake" had a contact phone number of another advisor who is related to our receptionist. I found it only when my phone was fixed (2 weeks later). There are tons of problems on the management level. There is ZERO marketing support for new people with the compliance approved material. On my interview I was told that after my licensing I will be receiving 6 months payments + commissions ($1,360 per month), in reality I had only 1 month paid. I got embarrassed a few times by introducing AXA as a "full financial service" company (exactly what we were told multiple times and how AXA is introduced), but in reality the PEP Associates are set to sell ONLY insurances and annuities - no training and access to LPL. As Financial professionals we are supposed to work in the best interest of our clients. I was pushed to do replacements and fussed when I refused to do it. If you are still considering AXA career, be prepared to pay for EVERYTHING out of your pocket and good luck to you!!!

Complete freedom to build your book of business anmd schedule.

Minpunten

Horrendous place to start. Managers run their own practice and have little to no time to actually help you outside of your joint meetings so you're on your own. They only give you 2 options to get clients, cold calling or their retirement benefits group through schools. Basically the whole advising piece is to just to sell life insurance and annuities. The support staff is thin so you're kind of on your own with paperwork and compliance docs. They just genuinely offer you nothing. No help with covering costs (you pay for all your licensing and marketing materials), they even charge you for using the company laptop and fees for programs you will never use. They will mislead you about the commission payouts and you only really get something if you get them to buy an annuity or life insurance. If you also have a remaining balance of any fees when you leave, they will literally sending you threatening letters demanding the money and threaten you with claims court if you don't pay it back.
