Pros

Raymond James is strong firm that take a very conservative approach to its business practices and in the deals it participates. The independent braches have lots of flexibility in most of the operations and are relatively autonomous while having a strong corporation to support it.

Cons

Raymond James' conservative policies sometimes get in the way of undertaking trades or investments that are seen as too aggressive.

Pros

Senior management is committed to growing the business in a sensible manner, which has resulted in stability while other firms have blown up (Merrill Lynch, Lehman Brothers, and Bear Stearns). The firm values its associates and encourages education and job growth. The firm's culture is very special and the workplace is very positive. The chairman's substantial art collection adorns the halls of the home office, which creates a museum-like environment. There are currently 3300 positions at the home office which allows for job opportunities.

Cons

In order to complete your responsibilities you sometimes have to put in extra hours. Your job satisfaction may be tied to how good your manager is.
