      Pros

      Casual dress environment, ability to work from home if there were snow days or family sick days.

      Cons

      Sales Division is run by folks who have never wholesaled to the field. It is run by actuaries who are more concerned about metrics (how many dials, conversations, emails sent) than actual sales numbers. They are trying to break into the wirehouse space with bank wholesalers and are unwilling to give their sales folks the support that is needed. Management is shifty in that they will tell you one thing but then talk about you behind your back or lie to your face. When you confront them about it they would rather avoid you than have a conversation or explain themselves.

      Pros

      There were good places to eat around bellevue. Good 401k match. Dollar for dollar up to 6%. No silly 50% of 6% crap. Fully vested from the start.

      Cons

      Expectations are not communicated. Annual Performance metrics seem to disregard all good feedback during the year and be very subjective unsupported by any examples.
