Pros

None!!!! This place is horrible

Cons

Every week about 3-4 investment counselors leave our office. They bring in large classes of about 15 new ICs to replace the ones that left. I’ve been getting clients for about 5 weeks now and already have a 100 clients. You will spend 90% of your day doing operations stuff and 10% of your day actually being an advisor. This company is horrible and the mangers will treat you poorly. Been here for 4 months and already looking for a new job because this is a joke!

Pros

The pay and bonuses are top notch, as is the 401k matching program. It is a great place to work for a few years after college to pad your retirement account and pay off your student loans.

Cons

The 50 hr work week is awful. Expect to see 15-20 yr professionals become 'clock watchers' who leave at 5:01pm versus actually working on projects like a regular company. Only white men move up in the organization, expect to work with guys that have failed upward and are now VPs . They value loyalty above skills or successful track record. Specific divisions are worse than others - 401k is run by the owner's son and should be avoided. A common sight at Fisher is a 20-person meeting with only white men.

Pros

Salary & insurance. + coffee & cutlery

Cons

When interviewing they treat you like they’d appreciate your skills. When you take the job be ready for management to treat you like garbage, threaten and harass you, and invade your personal cell phone etc. They pay well, but have also underperformed the markets for the past 10 yrs by close to 1/2 of what the US markets have provided. They change the bonus structure every qtr to screw you. Be ready when you make less as the top IC for the qtr than you did as a mid performer. I probably should’ve sued, but I’m grateful to be out.
