Pros

Good company, very collegial and good input and management

Cons

Pay is a little less than I would like. You are paid hourly so youre taking calls for eight solid hours each day which can get exhausting

Pros

Pros Edelman provides strong exposure to retirement planning conversations and a fast-paced environment that builds customer service and communication skills quickly. The training and structure help you learn processes, systems, and compliance expectations. You get repetition with real client scenarios, and some teammates are genuinely supportive and knowledgeable.

Cons

The job can feel like a constant sprint. Metrics and monitoring often outweigh judgment and quality, and performance management can feel punitive rather than developmental. Leadership quality varies widely; the experience can depend heavily on your direct manager. Turnover and burnout felt common in the teams I observed.

These are areas we continue to evaluate as we work to better balance performance expectations with sustainability, development, and a consistent management experience. Feedback like this is important in helping us strengthen how we support and coach our teams.
