Pros

Good retirement plan. Used to have more benefits, and management is making sure each one of them is slowly cut off - e.g. Paid time off policy, Flexible work from home program etc.

Cons

Roger used to have a say, but the new CEO in haste to make an impressionable impact is taking this company to the dumps. In guise of "collaboration", all employees in the TWS program are being asked to come back to work. A few of these loyal employees have homes, kids going to schools, old age parents, spouses working in the area, but the company wants everyone to report to a specific hub - quite impractical and callous This is being looked at more as a cost cutting measure of letting go of 20% of the company's workforce. Very poor execution and a lot of employees have lost faith in the CEO and the culture.

Pros

Great work life balance, good benefits, decent pay, ease of running your own practice as an “advisor”, and healthy work environment

Cons

Management styles can vary and affect your experience, upper management doesn’t seem to be well equipped to ensure the organization’s success but it is resilient nonetheless.

Pros

Compensation is great for advisors once they are promoted to VP. Everyone else has to wait a year and hope for a good rating that's more of a game than merit based

Cons

Woke culture, reverse discrimination, very frustrating to do business with as a client
