Pros

Starbucks, nice campus, free coffee and unlimited water

Cons

Poor pay, remedial work, lifeless employees and meaningless value. Seriously, don’t waste your youth here. You did not go to school to work at such a lagging place. People without degrees can do this job, and they would be happy to for the environment they are in. I thought taking a finance job in La Jolla would be cool but it sucks the soul out of you, lowering all ambitions and passion. Seriously, unless you wanna be micromanaged monitored, having any other job would be better

Pros

Great atmosphere, great culture, great people. Depending on which service team you're on and who your manager is, you may have periodic outings, birthday celebrations, or catered lunches.

Cons

Being in the service center has quite a bit of stress especially with all the change that LPL is undergoing...an acquisition and change in technology platform for the advisors. Quite a lot of complaining and unrealistic expectations from upper management. Once you're in the service center, it's very difficult to get out.
