Sales - Mitarbeiter (anonym) bei Trading Advantage: Mitarbeiterbewertung

This place offers the opportunity to do extremely well. If you put the work in, you'll be rewarded for it. But, the best part, in my opinion, is how much you learn about the industry and all the markets. There is a reason this place has been around for nearly 23 years and I would highly recommend TA to anyone who has a competitive spirit and willingness to work hard.

Just like any job, it is not "easy". But if you commit yourself it is definitely worth it.

The product is strong, and they are open to hiring people with no financial background. Compensation is there if you are a good closer.

Termination policy is inconsistent, especially if your new. Having a bad month at the wrong time can cost you your job, and you might receive little to no warning, verbal or written, to indicate your standing. When asked directly, management can be evasive rather than giving a direct answer. Performance reviews are almost non existent, though this may depend on the manager you are working with. Additionally, the departments (options, futures, stocks) are not equally lucrative, as can be seen by comparing the number of sales reps in each. The larger departments (options and futures) have a higher demand, with a larger number of leads specific for there product existing in the data base. Stocks often requires an additional step in the sales process, convincing a customer that they should change there desired method of trading, but if the customer does not have between $15-$20k to trade with, there is no point in the first place.
