Pros

- Freedom of time - Opportunity to build foundational Advisor Experience

Cons

- Very much a who you know business - Misguidance on book of businesses given to you. Don't expect any of the assets to be given to you are somehow going to help you. Other advisors dump those assets on you and create no revenue for you. - Don't buy into the mantra that ever advisor is there to help you. - Ponzi-esque

Pros

My direct leadership and colleagues.

Cons

Absolutely horrible company, please do not work here. Employees are basically just cattle to them, and treated terribly. Internal politics and favoritism lead to mistreatment of great employees, and obsession with return to office has turned this company into a nightmare to work for. Layoffs are unnecessary, and leaves understaffed in critical areas, but we are still expected to meet the same deadlines. All the company wants is to find ridiculous ways to save money like switching to off shore resources, layoffs and unnecessary reorganization. Upper leadership doesn't listen to employees at all, we are punished even when we tell them something cannot be done.
