      All self centered. Dishonest firm.

      Pros

      Large company with access to many products.

      Cons

      Since going public the firm only cares about the stockholders. Advisors are pawns to be tossed aside and taken advantage of. Employees don't care about anything except not being held responsible. The mission statement at LPL seems to be "Pass the Buck."

      Pros

      I've been in high tech for a couple decades and I've worked for and with many of the most well known tech companies in the USA. LPL has the most mature technology process I have experienced and, while this could be a bad thing if it is ponderous the LPL implementation is well balanced between value vs effort. And the very best thing is that the company is expanding at such a pace that growth opportunities are endless. It is my observation that applying yourself at LPL will lead to a lucrative and interesting career.

      Cons

      While not exclusive to LPL rapid growth comes with growing pains. These manifest in political rivalries and long hours and I see that at the VP+ level at LPL. I have seen the same thing at other fast growing companies.
