      Great Company

      Associate
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      The clients are the biggest pros for the job. The benefits are good and the company is growing, a "build it" they will come attitude. Some great people to work with as well. New employees can make a difference and get promoted. Pay above average.

      Cons

      Typical challenges (systems, layers) with growing company. With growth a dilution of internal expertise makes it "harder" to get work done. Newbies will find it "hard" to fit in AND serve the client.

      Wealth Management Advisor

      Wealth management advisor
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Good base pay. The clients you work with are incredible people. If you make it long enough, it provides a good variable compensation, but most advisors last less than 3 years.

      Cons

      Variable comp is only paid ANNUALLY. Don't be fooled. They say "we're only focused on doing what's best for our clients" according to TIAA, What's best for EVERY client is managed money. Meanwhile they are hitting advisors with unrealistic sales goals, and forcing our tenured advisors for not hitting their goals. I have personally seen 70% increase followed by a 20% increase in two years. Most managers have not done the job they are managing. Complete ineptitude. Don't plan on getting any valuable support from your manager.
