Pros

Raymond James was a great place to work because they continued to push me professionally. The legal team was, at that time, a good fit for everyone. Continuing our education was paramount and I enjoyed the various challenges of assisting counsel in the high risk cases I was assigned.

Cons

There weren't many. I found the salary pay scale was average, and I would have expected it to be higher than average considering Raymond James is one of the top premiere businesses in Tampa Bay.

Pros

Work from home days, employees are friendly and that includes most of the mid-level management. Not a hard job for an average IT employee. Good learning available to learn the business. Not a lot of overtime. If you like art work, you can't beat RJ as every wall has paintings. Largest collection in the south east US. Stable company, no layoffs.

Cons

In IT (software engineers), learning about the business is not mentioned or pushed. Technical growth to keep up with the industry is severely lacking. Book shelves of IT books from the 90's. Many of the SE III an IV have never used design patterns. If you want some new technology, this is not the place. Very mainframe/waterfall mindset. Overall, good managers if they have a technical background. Otherwise, they do more harm than good. No gym that is close by and no interest from the company in fixing that situation. The good people stay for awhile, get bored then leave. Salary is below average.
