Pros

None that I can think of.

Cons

This was the former Premier Advisor role. Now it's a defanged and toothless zombie job where you've been demoted to sitting on the phone all day to be the "relationship manager" to nobodies. Seriously, you have no book of clients, yet your boss coaches you to think that you do. Don't come here unless you like dialing 50 times a day while customer after customer tells you no or agrees to an appointment only to no-show your Financial Advisor partner. Don't come here unless you like driving 2 hours/day and spending $800 - 1000 per quarter in gas to perform a job you can do from your living room or at least from an empty office in a local branch 10 minutes from your home. Don't come unless you love redundant micromanagement. Don't do it!!!

Pros

Coming from a long time in the public service I was a bit nervous of the work pace, however it has been a great transition. The team and leadership supplied me with all the equipment and most of the programs I needed to get started on the first day. I have constant support for any of my ideas and my business insights even though I'm new to this industry.

Cons

The four day in office requirement is a bit much, though being new it is good to be in and meet colleagues. There seems to be a few different groups within the same business line that are working/competing towards the same project goal and the lower management are unaware the project was shared with other groups. Duplicity of the project has created a "my outcome is better" attitude.

Pros

The pros are the benefits, the pay could be higher for all that you learn and have to go through for ten weeks. They offer tuition assistance and opportunity for upskilling and advancing in such little time and the remote flexibility is great too

Cons

Management sucks and of course they have their favorites and then they have the people they target like myself. They micromanage bad and are quick to give you an occurrence for nothing. Their systems are so slow and then they blame you for being five ten minutes late logging in. They want you to tell them when you get up to breathe, go to the bathroom and they push for you to take calls and know boatloads of info after on 3 weeks of training. What they don’t know is that I will sue for any wrong doings or discrimination and I keep records of everything
