Pros

LPL has great benefits for employees and in my case, flexible work schedules. I am not sure if that was available across the firm as it appears to be a case by case management decision.

Cons

LPL struggles to close the gender pay gap. Additionally managing up has become an art at LPL.

Pros

Exposure to many aspects of financial services, finance and accounting.

Cons

The dynamic of this company is constant change. The reason employees in the finance and accounting groups turn over so much is because no one can ever get comfortable with their job. Very few people are subject matter experts. Once there is a comfort level, all processes will change. There is very little work/life balance. Late nights and weekend work is very common.
