Pros

non-management teammates are usually great people and enjoyable to be around and work with, it can be fun! it feels really good to help clients and meet their needs. really good bcbs health insurance offered and company will match 401k contributions up to 6% salary. everyone is quitting so there's lots of openings and opportunity for growth.

Cons

everyone is quitting because we're short staffed, adding to the problem. also impossibly high expectations, a lot of extra responsibilities, clueless managers. unclear and mismatched standards for things like dress code, arrival time, and some operational things. work environment can feel abusive due to extreme demands.

Pros

Opportunity to build long-term relationships with physicians and medical professionals to make a meaningful impact by helping them achieve financial security and life goals. Ability to develop expertise in a niche market, creating strong professional differentiation.

Cons

Expect high-performance pressure to meet revenue, asset growth, and client acquisition goals. Long sales cycle, as developing trust with physicians and converting prospects into clients can take months or years. Developing strong relationships requires effective networking, prospecting, and event attendance beyond traditional work hours.

Pros

Pay and good people (whatever is left). Nice amentities.

Cons

Things started going downhill in 2023. New senior leader took over our department and created the most hostile environment I have ever experienced which was motivated unchecked by leaders above them. Too many good leaders left and what is left are the most incompetent and toxic leadership you will ever see. There is a reason the bank isn't doing so good and it's reputation at this point is unsalavageable. Another merger won't save Truist and offshoring jobs to India is an attempt to milk the company until the well runs dry and executives abandon ship with steep payouts.
