If you have no desire to grow in your life this is the right company. of course if you want to grow you can grow anywhere in the world. cool office culture, people are primarily Microsoft mindset. that's okay

1. not good company if you have hunger to grow...slow paced company. LPL is going through transition period ..there is some instability but required if you want fast growth.

Pros

Nice newer building in San Diego. Some good folks work at LPL.

Cons

Management is almost non-existent although there is a plethora of people that hold the title. If you love to be micro managed the service center is the place for you. Inefficient operations and structure in service center. Management was able to outsource their own job and use the feedback from a third party to make "improvements" that never materialized when they were clearly being stated by the employees. LPL has difficulty in identifying and nurturing talent. Company has stagnant growth because they are catering to the old way of doing business, watch LPL leave San Diego in a few years when the lease is up.
