Pros

Excellent training program, fantastic study materials for prep for the series 7 and 66. Great bonuses and diversification trips available.

Cons

Very difficult to build client base with considerable assets in which to reach commission goals in small areas. Offices with assets given out unfairly. New/new fa's have high expectations to reach same goals with a clean slate vs. fa's with inherited assets and offices. Field trainers are not all very experienced and knowledgable, some just interested in pl bonus they receive when sharing an office.

Pros

They have allowed the HBA’s (home based associates) to remain remote

Cons

Micromanagers, they say they are okay if you want to apply to another department within the firm but the minute you do it’s like you get a target on your back. The pay doesn’t match the workload and the word is that you have to quit and then come back to make what you should already be getting paid. Benefits are terrible but 401k is pretty good
