Pros

Great company culture. Provides incredible support and training to Financial Advisors to allow them to serve clients out of their own local branch office. Every new FA typically starts in a veteran FA's office to learn and serve clients while building their business. They are also investing heavily in new technology - both FA and client facing.

Cons

Long interview process due to large upfront training investment they make. Very few leads given - must be willing to network and market to find clients yourself, but a lot of support and training provided around this.

Pros

- Had a 100 year successful legacy business model - Financial advisors and staff in field branches have pockets of good cultures

Cons

- Home office culture is horrible and getting worse (cronyism, poor leadership, lack of care/focus for associates) - Regressive HR policies - Senior leaders are disconnected from reality - Consultants running amok - Poor pay and even poorer benefits (unless you are a partner) - Technology introductions and org changes have been botched time and time again - Company is way off course to achieve its long term goals
