      Pros

      The new building brings the entire San Diego location to one building. It's a beautiful modern building with great features (ergonomic cubicles, fitness center, cafeteria, Starbucks, dry-cleaning, etc) and improved parking. You feel a certain amount pride walking in.

      Cons

      Poor communications between departments and teams. Resistance to change when obvious process improvements are needed. Still behind in salary compensation. Efforts being made, but not enough for employees hired longer than 5 years ago.

      Opportunities for career growth for motivated, talented employees; lack of compensation for loyal employees.

      Pros

      There are great opportunities for career growth for motivated, talented employees. From my experience, there is great work/life balance and LPL is very accommodating for the needs of its employees. There are opportunities for some employees to work from home when needed or as part of a regular schedule. For new employees, the hiring salary is competitive.

      Cons

      Compensation issues have been addressed for new employees coming on, however, they have not done much for loyal, high performing employees that were hired prior to the compensation restructuring. A number of employees have left LPL and come back within a year to be hired back at a much hire salary.
