I have strong reason to suspect I was placed on a PIP for reporting a employment violation to HR, I have had approved PTO get unapproved with 10 days of the vacation with no compensation, my area region leader is horrible. They have very weird rules to disqualify any compensation or even metric recording of repeat investors, even though the advisor I work with gets full credit and compensation, the branch manager and area leader get full metric credit and increase to their bonus for it and if another employee referred it they still receive their full flat bonus for the referral. If a branch is understaffed you will be required to essentially become a branch manager and will be expected to take on numerous branch operations but they will not adjust your wealth metrics.
