Pros

They mostly leave you alone to run your practice. Better than the firms that expect you to do everything for them and they take half of what you make for them providing you office space and a business card.

Cons

Growing Expenses, Errors & Emissions Insurance, Compliance, Home office supervision all up! I have $6,000 more in expenses then I had just last year with LPL. Some of the systems they implement for notices and required corrections are not user friendly and responses are not remedied quickly. Specifically the ProSurv Surveillance system is not user friendly at all. They still take from you before your pay grid. A haircut that isn't really ever transparent.
