Pros

They are 65% of the way to doing REAL, quality financial planning. Comprehensive but not holistic.

Cons

-no flexibility in work hours , low pay, and false promises on compensation - pay schedule that does not incentivize employees to grow, learn, and work above and beyond - lost 7 staff member in 1 year. There’s 18 employees. - think they are the only company doing real financial planning so they don’t learn - owner doesn’t even have CFP - owners and founders scream at employees, called everyone lazy after 3 employees quit and we were drowning - they only notice if you come in early and not stay late - micromanaging. Yet Amy still manages to cancels most planning meetings and not be prepared for client meetings - one owner never shows up to scheduled one on one meetings - new employees are not treating with inclusiveness. They are ignored and not invited to after hours get togethers - never listen to new ideas because they think they walk on water - owners talk bad on employees and rip them apart when a mistake is made - stayed late and took work home and looked down on because I didn’t come in early

Pros

Employees are amazing! Benefits and pay are great.

Cons

Leadership needs to get extensive training on leading, or let someone else take care of that. Partners will yell and cuss at employees, talk poorly about them behind their back (and sometimes within earshot), talk disparagingly about clients in company meetings, and support a very toxic environment. Also, when the positive review was posted on this site, I was the ONLY Admin in the office. It was obviously posted by one of the partners.
