Pros

Reputable firm with valuable opportunities. Reputable firm that is well respected. The trainee program was good in theory, but poorly executed.

Cons

The trainee program was poorly executed and was not effective in its goal of training us to join FA teams.

Pros

Very minimal pros- you are working in a call center under managers with very little experience.

Cons

Managers are useless. The greater organization refers to the Wealth Advice Center as the “WAC”… yes…. wack. It has a double meaning and the advisors on the ultra high net worth teams are known to make fun of this call center. Very unserious role.
