Great Culture

Pros

The culture is great and the people are great. LPL does a great job of setting expectations around accountability and working as a team with a common goal. People crave ownership at LPL whereas other companies I've worked at people crave handing-off work. They do a great job of hiring the right people.

Cons

In general, the pay is not very competitive and the talent pool is dramatically underpaid in aggregate. This causes a lot of good talent to look elsewhere when they should be compensated for their work.

Pros

Rapid growth Great brand Great benefits Many awesome people Challenging and interesting work Opportunity to take on projects and grow Focused on improvement

Cons

Inefficient and insufficient processes and systems. TA dept. is extremely underfunded and understaffed for a company that size and growing that rapidly. "Fast-paced" is code for overworked. Many unresolved simple issues for long periods of time without the authority of time to fix it myself. I received no actual training when I started and very littlelater on. Work/life balance was nonexistent, very high pressure, being pulled in many different directions. Focus on metrics without the support necessary. The high job requisition load per recruiter has been negatively impacting the business teams workloads as well. Heavy office politics and gossip. Feedback provided is too delayed and indirect. Some big egos to navigate. Leadership speaks out of both sides of their mouths on occasion. Culture is pretty good but a bit artificial and superficial.
