Supportive team and valuable experience in a demanding role
Pros
I had a positive experience working here overall. The people were welcoming, supportive, and genuinely cared about creating a collaborative work environment. Leadership was very approachable, and I appreciated the opportunities to learn and the trust placed in employees. This role gave me valuable experience and helped me better understand my own career goals. Ultimately, I realized that financial planning as a profession wasn't the right long term fit for me, which was a personal career decision rather than a reflection of the company or team. The organization provided a professional environment with knowledgeable colleagues, and I'm grateful for the experience.
Cons
Like many roles in wealth management, the work can be detail-oriented and demanding, so it's important to have a genuine interest in financial planning and the subject matter to thrive. It is a fast paced environment and can be high stress but DEW allowed me to feel comfortable to come forward about how I was feeling regarding the role.
