Pros

Stable, low stress, salary, easy job

Cons

Many layers of management. Even if you are a superstar you aren't going to change things. The company is large and they judge everyone with your job title by the same scorecard, even though you are in different regions with different clients and teammates. Many of the middle managers have been promoted from within by sucking up and are completely uninspired and incompetent leaders.

Pros

The work environment is great here. Everyone seems happy to be at work and help is never in short supply when you're new like me.

Cons

I haven't found any cons yet. Only thing that surprised me is that they don't supply cups or plastic ware in the break rooms.

Pros

Good people, many dedicated to the corporate mission of helping clients with financial planning.

Cons

It has a lot of internal competition and therefore people who are willing to take credit for your ideas or otherwise puff themselves up to try and "move up" the corporate ladder.
