Pros

Great company, great brand, and great products. Local support is good. Training and resources are abundant. Benefits are great and the retirement and matching 401K are excellent. Compensation is very competitive and the people are great to work with.

Cons

Customer service is very poor and often causes more problems than they fix. If you don't need all of the benefits and services they provide advisors you will still have to pay for them in the form of giving up part of your commission. IT is behind and needs improving.

Pros

I loved my job and my coworkers, and the company's health benefits were outstanding. Leaving wasn't an easy decision, but it was the right one.

Cons

I had a toxic manager who micromanaged everything—checking time reports, tracking lunch breaks, and monitoring every minute away from your desk. They often sent multiple emails to communicate a single point because they struggled to communicate clearly. High-visibility projects were consistently given to favorites, while the rest of the team was overlooked. They were also frequently condescending in team huddles and meetings. Based on my experience, they were never taught how to lead people effectively, and I'm genuinely surprised they're still in a management role.
