Pros

Decent benefits and great work hours.

Cons

Company is much too frequently changing processes without having the logistics well thought and technological issues plague everyday functioning. Base pay is a bit low for job responsibilities. Profitability bonuses can be good if you work with an advisor that sees your value but it is up to each individual advisor if he/she wishes to share. Personal service which used to be the cornerstone of the business model is changing and appears to be moving towards a centralized call center approach. The direction maybe necessary but at a cost to the great personal service they used to provide.

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
