I wouldn't work for this firm again and wouldn't recommend people to work there. - Account Manager EARNEST Partners Employee Review

Smaller firm - opportunity to make a significant impact! Entrepreneurial High intellectual density in firm If you have a good idea - you get to run with it! Comradery with peers Successful business willing to invest in new opportunities.

Personally location was an issue, more because of where I live

You get to wear a suit and tie to work. Every single day of the year. Regardless of how much you make. Great work/life balance. This is like a post office/government job. Working hard doesn't get you rewards.

- Low Pay - Low Motivation - Very few advancement opportunities. Most people just come in for a year or two, or until they find another job. Only few departments, which all consist of "directors" are worth being in.. but most likely, you are better off working at a larger firm in Atlanta. - Company peddling same products. Even the investment/trading team has been turned into marketing (apologies... "product development") team. 100s of stocks, and only 10 people to keep track of all of them (actually, some "employees" are just listed on the website, very few people have actually seen them)? The company doesn't foresee what is going to happen to your investments in the future, it 'acts' after your investment have dropped. Which doesn't help customers.
