Pros
There are a lot of pros working with ETRADE, having the ability to access Morgan Stanley products was also a huge plus. You receive a lot of support for exams etc. lots of benefits and flexibility for extra training (specializations)
Cons
The way we are spoken to violates so many HR policies it’s insane. You will work long hours at a lower pay rate than Morgan Stanley counter parts, ETRADE pays the lowest in the industry but they expect you to navigate the job with zero hiccups. Training is long and adequate, but almost feels irrelevant when managers allow certain things and others don’t. It’s a great company to start out with, but tenure will be short once you're no longer useful. If you love the call center environment and don’t care about micromanagement, this is the job for you. But if you want to have a better entry experience in finance, should probably look elsewhere.
