Pros
Work from home, decent benefits
Cons
They don’t give sufficient raises. They have no bonus structure. The vast majority of the people who work here have no prior experience in finance, yet they’re trying to present themselves as a legitimate financial institution and registering as a broker dealer. They’re really just flying by the seat of their pants, rather than applying actual experience and knowledge of the industry. The level of professionalism for what they hope to achieve is questionable. They’re shortsighted and have over hired, only to then lay off large groups, including people hired only months before. I left a higher paying job to work at Guideline, believing it was a good career move. I was repeatedly assured my role was essential and valued. Then with the recently announced Gusto acquisition, I was laid off after only a few months, along with at least 33 others. This was after I was used for my financial industry knowledge, and then tossed aside when they had the information they needed, that no one else could provide because of the severe knowledge deficit within the company.
