Job Security as an IW?

Been offered a wholesaler position at Blackrock. Just curious of what the job security is like there? I'm assuming it has to be pretty ruthless in terms of having a bad month or two. Any advice on the wholesaler business in general at Blackrock? I'm coming from a financial advisor role and I'm not sure I'm ready to give up what I have now because of the sense of security I have in my job and while the pay isn't as good as Blackrock would be, it's not bad either.
