      Heavy micromanagement, mediocre leadership, high turnover...

      Pros

      Benefits and Routine Time Off policy are decent. Nice campus. Relatively relaxed work space, cafeteria, flexible hours. The ability to work in private choice rooms is nice, as well.

      Cons

      High manager turnover, mediocre leadership, severe micromanagement. Inconsistent expectations, and poor prioritization and time management skills on part of supervisors. Much of their "busyness" is self - generated as a result of their needing to control every aspect of their direct reports' workflow/ processes. Kind of a "Wild West" scenario where no one really seems to know what's going on, and new "leaders" dismantle prior leaders' initiatives and change things in order to make their own marks before they also leave... causing the whole process to start again: Wash. Rinse. Repeat.

      AVP - Marketing Regulatory Review

      Pros

      Benefits and flexibility. I worked for a great team for the first 2 years of my time at LPL, then management changed. If you get in with a great team and managers, LPL is a great place to work.

      Cons

      New management of dept has no legal or chief compliance officer experience and are severely lacking in subject matter expertise required for their roles. Years of experience, in their opinion, can be taught in 2 months as they hire people who have never worked in a specialized area of compliance. It was the first time in my career that a lawyer or CCO was not my boss.
