Pros

Solid benefits, including 401k match and pension plan Competitive salary and compensation with upside potential Reputable company in the eyes of their clients and financial industry

Cons

Management in Wealth Management/Individual Advisory Services is incredibly stifling and micromanaging. Managers lack experience, integrity, and security to treat their advisors like professionals and adults. No input is wanted from advisors and producers at all and the culture and vibe is very negative and poisonous.

Pros

Great culture. The company is growing at break neck speed with lots of exciting "bet the farm" project work underway. Major transformative changes underway that creates a great opportunity for anyone that thrives in that type of environment.

Cons

The key to success is moving fast, enabling midlevel managers to make decisions, and being allowed to fail and learn from that failure - an Agile innovation methodology. The place is so locked down with toll gates and controls it is impossible to implement change across multiple work streams in an Agile fashion. The management team is using a set of controls that makes change too hard, too slow and kills the enthusiasm of the people managing the change.
