Pros

Great clients, okay base pay, benefits, office location, culture. There is a great deal of support for clients over $5m, but anything less not so much.

Cons

Poor technology and very inefficient. Siebel is a dinosaur and creates a lot of drag on productivity. Other systems are being consolidated, but continue to be poor and difficult to use.

Pros

Plenty of clients to work with People are nice to work with

Cons

Not enough pay for what's required of the job Too much oversight; micromanagement; director and above level are way too hands on, doesn't allow for individual personality and strength to shine; moving towards the direction of a "every client gets the same solution". Don't have capability to take on/ service/ provide value to ultra high net worth Wealth management structure too rigid Way too much compliance; to the point a wealth management advisor can't do their job Bottom line- don't work for individual advisory service! It's still at its infancy stage.
