Pros

My manager and team were great, can’t say much about rest of CFN

Cons

1. WFH policy is absurd. No business plan was ever laid out for why we should return to office other than top management wanted employees to talk over coffee?? 2. If you’re in an advisor facing role, get ready for them and their assistants to yell at you. Was told in orientation how CFN only brings in “good” people as advisors, couldn’t be further from the truth when it comes to interacting with advisors and their support staff on a day to day basis. My ops department has lists of offices no one wants to deal with 3. Pay, CFN wants you to commute to work on a ~50k salary if you’re a 2-3 year tenured employee. Look up Waltham rent and tell me how you can live a good life with todays gas prices, rent prices and you can’t work remote, so out of touch. We have our top people talking about inflation on cnbc but never saw an inflation bump in our pay checks.
