Pros
Full-service brokerage firm with abundance of learning opportunities within headquarters. Decent benefits package. People are generally great to work with. Senior management has done a great job so-far of leading after disconnecting from leadership of the James family.
Cons
Hard to move up within your own group. Supervisors/Managers say they want to help career growth, but do not offer insight or follow-up to ensure you are on track - nor are they willing to actually develop talent, would rather higher those with experience than develop stars into supervisory positions. 401k match is a bit antiquated, as is the vacation/sick time mix. Slow to make changes in trouble spots - keep beating the square peg into the round hole.
