Pros

Some of the clients were lovely people.

Cons

The interview process was pretty straightforward but the training is inadequate for all the responsibilities and expectations of the role. It takes 2 years in average to get “comfortable” my FA was very unprofessional, super control freak, would blame me for her mistakes, yell ar me while I was on the phone with clients and made the workplace absolute hell. Biggest mistake and would never go back. I lasted 8 months and it was torture. Depends on your FA of course, can be a better experience but still the amount of information you need to learn is insane for what they pay you.

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
