Pros

Lots of emotional support from people within the region. There is a lot of autonomy if you are able to build a healthy branch office

Cons

Be careful of the Goodknight program. I received 10million; 250 accounts. These were all accounts that were handed down multiple times. The clients had small account balances and were not bringing in assets. I wasted a lot of time servicing these accounts. In the end, I felt like the region didn't do what was best for me.

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
