Pros

Opportunity for licensing...that's it...not much else if you on coming in on ground floor

Cons

I f starting with no assets ...good luck... most asset transfers are decided well in advance ...so if your not part of the in club...good luck.....beware of the practice offered to you right away...most open practices go through six or more advisers....six! Commission structure is terrible at levels 1-3....unless you rocket passed them by being given assets your chances of making a living are diminished....highly not recommendable place to work

Pros

They have allowed the HBA’s (home based associates) to remain remote

Cons

Micromanagers, they say they are okay if you want to apply to another department within the firm but the minute you do it’s like you get a target on your back. The pay doesn’t match the workload and the word is that you have to quit and then come back to make what you should already be getting paid. Benefits are terrible but 401k is pretty good
