Pros

LPL truly cares about its home office employees, reps, and doing the right thing. Senior (executive) manage really does care about providing a combination of shareholder value and a happy/rewarding work-place environment for its employees, FAs, IAs, etc.

Cons

LPL needs to manage expenses better from a compliance standpoint with respect to hiring third-party vendors--who take an exorbitant amount of time to manage- to do mindless work. It's just not cost-effective. Also, LPL needs to realize that the home office tech dept. (those who know LPL are very familiar with the acronym) running the show.

Pros

Ownership over work, work-life balance and time-off policies.

Cons

Salary and mobility is a little restricted, no real career growth here, mostly lateral moves to different departments. Company does not manage their expenses/fines well and in turn their employees must bear the burden
