      Pros

      Get to work on things I am passionate about.

      Cons

      Not an ideal environment to think freely and offer an unbias opinion. If your opinion goes against the CIO, then it is shunned. Must watch your step when offering opinions and ideas. Higher ups are more sales oriented as opposed to academic in their views of markets.

      Good company, Management not very efficient/trained

      Pros

      Worked within the mktg dept. at LPL. Friendly, hard-working dept and colleagues. Definitely held up to the LPL value and standards. Was satisfied with interview process and compensation. Beautiful building. Good benefits and time honored vacation.

      Cons

      There is a lot of excessive protocol, middle-mgmt that gets in the way of getting out jobs more efficiently and dynamically. Middle-management needs more training on how to coach associates more effectively (a lot of pressure) and less waterfall workflow. A -lot- of work within 40-hr wk. Needed to upgrade to the latest digital marketing trends.
