Pros

I decided to work for deVere because of its culture, earning potential and the opportunity to work in one of our 73 offices located globally. This is a firm that believes hard work pays off and nothing is handed to you on a silver plate. If you are driven, determined and hungry for success, this is surely a step in the right direction. I was on the Graduate Scheme in Malta for 7 weeks before moving to one of our ASEAN offices. In regards to Malta, it was a boot camp for Finance. It was tough as you had to work long hours as well as study for a professional qualification. Effort paid off and I now work with a highly professional team who are also a great laugh. Continuous training and support is provided and the Managers go above and beyond to make sure that we are pushing ourselves and gaining the knowledge we need to succeed within the Wealth Management industry.

Cons

10-12 hour days are not for everyone and I guess some would see this as a con. This is not for someone who wants a 9-5 job. There is a lot of calling involved and a lot complain about this aspect as it is a big part of your job for at least the first year. However, i'm going to use this as a little rant, you have to look at the bigger picture. Financial Advisors aren't going to have High Net Worth individuals throwing themselves at you asking to advise them on what to do with their money. A lot of trust is needed. A successful advisor writes business with referred clients, but obviously to get the clients in the first place you need to build a foundation.

Pros

Dynamic, hardworking and fun. Great opportunity for career development and there is no ceiling on what you can achieve.

Cons

Not a negative however you run your own business within a business and that level of responsibility works for some people and not for others
