Pros

Flexibility, generous PTO, nice office and good location

Cons

Prepare for group think and don't expect leadership to take accountability for any decisions. They say they have an open door policy, but if you don't agree with the group think and try to share new ideas, you will be ignored, blacklisted, demoted, or RIF'd. Continue to sell their flexibility and "culture" as a reason for their poor pay, when in reality they haven't kept up with the times and they are now behind with that as well. Your ability to make an impact is in execution only. Do not expect to to have any say in the decision making process, which takes forever because all of executive and senior leadership needs to "buy-in" before they proceed with anything. Overall not an environment where leadership cares about employees. They care about their own bonus and compensation and selling the company, and that is it. They say they have transparency, but in reality they have no idea what employees deserve to know and seem to share information, but nothing that is actually important or relevant to the situation of the company.

Pros

Advicent was great - all went downhill after they were acquired by Investcloud. Majority of the team left within a few months of the acquisition (taking the great company culture along with them). Had nothing but great things to say about Advicent... Investcloud is a different story entirely.

Cons

Lack of transparency, mainly surrounding the Covid-era layoffs. To be honest, this is fairly on-par with other Covid layoffs but was one of the only cons I could think of.

Pros

- Great people to work with. They're mostly very intelligent, fun, and willing to help you if have any issues. It may be just me but I have not seen any kind of politics being played that would reduce focus on the job. - Culture is fun and inviting. There are a lot of events and collaboration/sharing across teams and departments. - From all of my experiences, managers do everything in their power to provide employees with the necessary resources and means to do the best in their position. This is all you can really ask, you have to do the rest and work hard. - Work-life balance is extremely helpful. Per the norm, 40 hours are expected but you have flexibility in essentially choosing your hours other than core ones and being available for meetings.

Cons

- Pay is across the board lower than average. That being said, if you're an above average employee then that will not be the case. Pay is likely lower than average due to the young workforce which is primarily 1-4 years out of college. - Training: in most positions, there is not a fully developed or organized training program. This is actually a plus and minus. On one hand it teaches you to deal with ambiguous situations. But it does make some people feel uncomfortable. It does however allow the organization to find people that can thrive with minimal direction.
