However, I found that some of the employees had an intrusive sales approach that didn't align with my morals. Others had a better approach that enabled them to form a relationship with the customer and truly find their personal needs."

They would not allow new employees to work independently and required you to work with a senior adviser who got 50% of your sales commission and full control of the account if you left the company. This organization did not seem to try and hide the fact that new hires have incredibly high turnovers, and have created a system that perpetuates this issue. My supervisor spent a good deal of time criticizing me over trying to help me overcome the tribulations of an incredibly difficult industry."
