Pros

Clients are great and the firm has been accommodating in regards to COVID-19

Cons

Where to start... two years ago they discuss about WM transformation and they have no idea how to lead WM. We are now reporting to an institutional business leader with no WM experience and massive re-org in management. A lot of advisors will take voluntary severance and advisors at the field who stay will be task to do more and clients that do not have “enough assets” will be shifted to a phone base advisors. At this point no clear direction and no trust of executive leadership

Pros

Good benefits but not for long I am sure. Some management is good but good ones are being let go.

Cons

This company is just BAD, stay away from this toxic and terrible company. Every year I would have a new manager due to reorgs. My last boss was a "death by PowerPoint" guy, who replaced automation using dashboards with manually updating PowerPoint which was a big waste of company dollars. When I went to put my 2 weeks in, HR/manager decided to find a way to let me go instead of working through the transition plan and this manager is in the "future senior leaders" program for TIAA. Not sure what that says for the future of this company

Do not care for their employees

Pros

Benefits and retirement contribution Colleagues

Cons

There are many high-performing, long standing employees that are being told to uproot yourself and family and move across the country (in some cases) or take a severance package. There is an office 15 miles from some employees locations but because the company recently decided that job function will be consolidated in another location if the don’t agree to move they will be without a job. I can only hope middle management will come to their senses and mutiny before all of the talent that will be shown the door leaves permanently.
