Too many people involved to make simple decisions, too LEAN, no work life balance, minimum growth, reviews are very drawn out and time consuming

We appreciate your review, and we absolutely agree that we have great people here at Advisor Group. We believe the work life balance is something unique and different for each employee. We acknowledge that we run lean, which is why it’s important for you to spend some time with your leader discussing your workload.

Pros
Remote flexibility, great management on current team.
Cons
I feel as if pay could be better for certain roles.
- Unlimited PTO
- Health insurance coverage is good (I've had doctors' offices tell me this, but it is pricey and has gone up).
- There are good people here, and a lot of talent. But they are so burnt out it's hardly a pro.
Cons
- Layoffs result in overworked, very lean teams who are not fairly compensated for the additional expectations of their roles.
- SVP level and upward is very political, and there seems to be a lot of favoritism.
- Leadership pays lip service to financial professionals and works to keep the board happy, but they couldn't care less about the employees' wants and needs. Employee complaints are met with a condescending "Maybe you should consider if Osaic is the right place for you."
- Wildly unpopular RTO with a crazy mileage radius. The new office also just happens to be in a part of town where the average Osaic employee can't afford to live. Most execs do not live in a home office hub, nor do many SVPs.
- Very little career growth opportunity. Title changes and raises take years to be processed, and employees are given the run around.
- HR is never your friend, but especially HR at Osaic.
There were good, intelligent, well-meaning people at this company once. But most have been run off. I'm still unclear as to why. It used to be a better-than-average place to work, but it's declined pretty rapidly over the last 2-3 years.
