Pros

SmartAsset has been an unbelievable company to work for due to it’s incredible and ambitious staff members who empower one another. They make sure that you never feel lost or confused and if you ever have a single concern there is always someone who can help you. There is consistently a push to work harder and many incentives to always perform better than the day before.

Cons

At the moment all the roles in this company are performed while working at home

Pros

1. Company is growing insanely quickly! Everyone knows exactly how they contribute to the growth and it gives us all a sense of ownership and pride 2. We are 100% remote. SmartAsset does an amazing job of making sure everyone is connected in a virtual world. I have never felt alone or forgotten. We have virtual daily team huddles (twice per day), team virtual happy hours, constant contact through slack and google hangouts, and company wide virtual activities like happy hours, book clubs, etc. 3. Career growth is a real thing here. From day one, all reps on the AM team are asked to think about where they want to be in 1, 3, and 5 years. Their managers help them come up with tangible steps to get there and the journey begins. 4. We make money. Which is important...especially in sales. As an AM, you will be given a good size book of business and are free to work it how you see fit. There is a lot of money to be made and those that work hard and are natural AMs make some serious $ 5. Culture is very important. Every single person at SmartAsset is made to feel like they are part of the family. We care for each other, help each other succeed and celebrate together when we win. And we have been winning an awful lot lately. Feels good to win :)

Cons

1. We are growing very rapidly. With that growth comes growing pains. But if you are able to be flexible and get a little scrappy with the proverbial duck tape and super glue, you'll be fine. 2. Lots and lots and lots of work to do. Which, if your someone who hates being bored, is perfect for you. But if you are someone who likes a clean inbox and a fully crossed off to-do list at the end of each day, it can be a struggle.

Pros

- Really smart and cool group of people to work with - SmartAdvisor Platform is an excellent product for advisors looking to grow their practice - Personal Finance website is excellent and I still use it as a resource

Cons

- SmartAdvisor platform sales dept. became very boiler roomy - Unnecessary micromanagement became the norm after management change - You can go from having a great manager one month and then be switched over to a terrible manager the next. - Sales department was making many disruptive changes as the sales team was delivery record sales. This made forward months very challenging. - Sales ops head is a smart and approachable guy but his team was fair to midland at best.
