Pros

Other BOAs are a warm, friendly environment, benefits are pretty good, if you get the right FA you may learn a lot about securities, clients were wonderful

Cons

Home Office does little to protect BOAs from mean, nasty Financial Advisors. As long as the FA is making money, that's all that matters. No growth opportunities for BOAs unless you want to move to St. Louis or become an FA. Pay was decent for non-degreed associates, but for those with degrees it's terrible. Compensation is based on the FA's performance, so the BOA can suffer because they work for a non-performing FA
