It's possible to make a lot of money. You will like your coworkers if you're big in sports or if you were in a fraternity.

The salary is too low for a livable wage in Tampa and the training takes between 6 and 12 months.. They will sell you on 6 months training, but they decide to keep people in training if they need the operational work for accounts. After that you enter the sales floor and it takes people 6-12 months to earn more money than your base salary. So expect 1-2 years to start making more than $43000. The ability to make good money is dependent on the market. I was working there for 3 years and the market was saturated. It's difficult to make sales because customers value price over service and they are receiving 30 calls a day from other brokers. Most of the people making good money are gifted accounts that have a long-term relationship with the company. If you are making good money it's high stress because you will be dealing with a lot of volume and operational issues that can happen 24/7. There's not a lot of resources to make sales, it's all cold calling.
