      Business Outlook

      Pros

      This is one focused company that, after learning the hard way a few years ago, is fully committed to their clients and their employees. This is a company with a purpose. There are lots of opportunities for advancement for the right person (ie: for someone motivated, smart). Benefits are in-line for the market (financial services in SF). Relatively flat org structure.

      Cons

      This company runs relatively lean adding to the already long hours (for those that want to get ahead). Some groups are being relocated, affecting morale even for those not directly impacted. Unknown future post-Chuck. Signs of getting more bureaucratic internally.

      Charles Schwab: Treat clients great, be compensated badly, if in a callcenter relocate or change companies to advance.

      Pros

      I've found that in my position at Charles Schwab I'm encouraged to "do the right thing" for the client. The freedom to do that and to be the clients advocate is the best reason to work for Charles Schwab.

      Cons

      Compensation. In a call center type environment there is not alot of room for advancement even as a registered representative. Charles Schwab is not as much of a meritocracy as other financial firms, so advancement is much more related to seniority and politics.
