Pros

No positive aspects whatsoever to working here.

Cons

Absolutely the worst company I have ever worked for. I dealt with constant micro-management, outdated technology, expensive and archaic investment products, and incompetent service teams day in and day out. Malevolent and worthless management that extended to the very top of the company drives this dysfunction. The HR group snitched on and protected management as if it was North Korea and those in service and client relationship roles did everything in their power to promote themselves. The word is on the street is that this company is losing more and more plans to other providers and that their advisors are running out of clients to peddle their worthless managed product to. If you are a financial professional that prides yourself on your work ethic, integrity and ability to serve clients than look elsewhere. Regardless of what they are promising you it is not worth it. Even if you are in need of something temporary find someplace else. The number of negative reviews on this site speak volumes as to the ineptitude of this firm and no amount of explaining or enticements by current employees will replace your integrity or sanity if you decide to work here.
