"Most of the financial advisers at NM are male and it is a culture and system that has been created to help men become successful. Feedback is mainly given around numbers and men like to parade their numbers around. As a female, you will often be asked whose assistant you are and there is an assumption that you are not an adviser. It can also be lonely when you find yourself the only female in a room, which will happen more often than not. There is also no maternity leave. That being said, for the women who are able to survive, this can be an awesome career where you get to impact many people and have the potential to make a lot of money."

"The sales contest rewards are predominately male oriented. The national company is making management aware of changes needed in order to recruit and retain women."

"They promote women within to leadership opportunities and also provide a lot of support for women throughout the company. Very male dominant from years past, but the women across the country are incredibly talented and it is a great network to work with."
