Pros

You will learn a lot and gain valuable experience.

Cons

They are all brain washed and only want drones that follow what they say/do. You become ostracized once you start thinking on your own. The hiring for financial advisors is dangerously close to a pyramid scheme. At every meeting, the mission & vision statements are reviewed and during normal conversation the firm’s tag line is repeated, constantly. Also, the health benefits for advisors are horrible unless you’re single and never see a medical professional.

Pros

They have allowed the HBA’s (home based associates) to remain remote

Cons

Micromanagers, they say they are okay if you want to apply to another department within the firm but the minute you do it’s like you get a target on your back. The pay doesn’t match the workload and the word is that you have to quit and then come back to make what you should already be getting paid. Benefits are terrible but 401k is pretty good
