Pros

The management took interest in my general well-being beyond my work requirements I loved helping clients understand their financial steps when dealing with their accounts We dressed casually on Fridays and always had a great time socializing with my co-workers after work It is a job for one seeking experience

Cons

The management should inform employees a head of time of any procedural changes Meetings should only be held when necessary Too many emails on non-worked related procedures

Pros

Great way to enter the workforce. Great Benefits. Nothing beyond that.

Cons

Where do I start....? If you're in Milwaukee don't waste your time. All non customer service jobs are in other locations. They've never attempted to bring good jobs to Milwaukee. Your compensation will be great to start and then you will be surpassed by newer reps after a few years. Experience means nothing to them. Over the past 12 months dozens of management has been let go for newer folks who will cost less. The harder you work the more work you get. There will be no reward for your hard work. There is no penalty for not doing your job. Their reward system is to provide you free food once every three months. A yearly raise will be to simply cover Cost of Living for their employees. They say you don't take your work home with you but you're constantly coming home and complaining about your day until you go to sleep. The company bought JP Morgan's Retirement business several years ago but JP Morgan has taken over the company. Change isn't always a bad thing but when it takes jobs away from your best location it's hard to find a silver lining.
