Toxic culture of ineptitude and politeness

Pros

People are nice. Flexible hours.

Cons

Management doesn’t know what they’re doing, and they don’t trust the actual subject matter experts they have on their teams. They hire people in roles who do not have the adequate skills or knowledge for the role. It’s a very “old school” company where people stay for life and just shuffle around into positions they’re not actually qualified for. Lots of talk and little action. Blocked at every step of the way. No progress. Management doesn’t really listen or understand the problems of associates.

Pros

Some of the people are cool.

Cons

It’s a rough company to work for. The pay is low, senior leaders are decided based on relationships rather than expertise, the retirement package is a joke especially for a retirement company, and it’s a sales organization not an investment firm. Don’t be fooled.

Pros

The limited Partnership opportunities. Bonus opportunities. Lots of talented people still working there.

Cons

Frantic and chaotic at least on the HQ side. Intense workload that you are often not able to see through to completion due to ever shifting priorities. No clear decision making processes or system of accountability. Unclear priorities. Senior leaders are very narrow minded about remote work. Leaders are not accessible due to the overwhelming demands on their capacity.
