Pros

-Good health benefits (includes Vision and Dental) -Occasional visibility of upper management -Smooth daily operation here, the place works like a machine. -Offers workshops and info sessions for employee development (all Fisher related only however)

Cons

-Off-site parking can be troublsome. You get shuttled in on a small bus. -Most employees there seem unhappy and unappreciated. -Work environment can tend to be very stressful and at times hostile! No respect and absolute lack of professionalism here.

Pros

Having been in the industry for about 20 years both on the brokerage side and institutional side and I consider Fisher the big leagues of firms to work for. I have been with the firm now for some time and happily plan to stay until I am ready to retire. This is a first class organization with the opportunity to interact with any level of the company (CEO on down)and the pay and benefits are significantly better than other opportunities. Sure, we work hard and the expectations are high, but what else would be expected in a multi-billion dollar money management firm? We are one of the few firms that actually care about each customer and spend a great deal of time and resources on this. I am always surprised when I see someone leave the firm seeking “greener” pastures because I know what is out there in the finance industry – good luck swimming in that 60-80 hour per week shark tank. Unfortunately, I see a lot of just out of college people that complain about the work but have no other relevant work experience. They are in for a rude awakening.

Cons

It would be nice to have some type of child care or flex time for those with kids; especially younger pre-schoolers.
