Pros
Pay wasn't bad for starting compared to banks. Still mostly work from home. Beautiful modern office. Coworkers are helpful. 20 days pto starting
Cons
There is no work life balance here. Associates are expected to log in at night to make sure all trades are in . You can do 999 trades but you will be scolded and talked down to for missing the 1. Clients come first and the company will never so no. So if something comes in at 5:30, you stay until it's done. Procedures can also change on a whim if client wants things day of. Understaffed, company doesn't care and will act like your workload is normal. Nobody that wants to raise a family will stay. Don't believe me, go or look at the company parties and around the office. Noone over 40 that not in management is around. They left for better companies. That why company has a high turnover rate of over 30% a year. Manager constantly work until 8pm consistently, so their just as overworked. Alter only cares about numbers, so toxic employees that remain will be promoted to manager. Alot of how your life will be will depend on whom you have and life can be micromanaging and toxic. This will be one if the most stressful places I've ever worked for.
