Good Balance

Pros

Work-life balance is usually good. Never worked a weekend. Co-workers are very good too.

Cons

Upper management doesn't understand communication sometimes and wants results while they are not planned for or too unobtainable.

Pros

Not much to say. Glassdoor is making me do this review to continue uploading my resume. I simply didn't enjoy my experience.... four years ago.

Cons

Kestra had recently bought a smaller financial firm that had AUM of $500,000,000. They didnt reorganize the company at all and left two people in charge that had no business being in charge. I get it, one of them built the company and another had some good wealth management experience but, that doesn't mean they should be managers. The individual who built the company was basically semi-retired going between his three different homes and the other was extremely passive aggressive and lived and hour and a half from the office, coming and going as they pleased. People had literally taken pay decreases to leave the toxic environment created.

Pros

People, Fair compensation, Benefits, and PTO

Cons

Homemade technology is always a challenge. Seems to be the firms greatest weakness. Management’s glacial decision making process.
