Good culture, poor salary

Pros

Very strong culture and ethics. The firm protects its associates and I have never been worried about my position being eliminated even through the financial crisis. Being privately held allows the firm to have a clear long term vision.

Cons

Compensation is very low compared to similar positions in the industry. Moving up in the ranks within the firm further decreases your earning power especially if you move up quickly.

Pros

Great deal of control over your own success or failure. You have the ability to run your office and visions how you see fit as long as you are legal, ethical and profitable. Huge focus on client satisfaction.

Cons

Feelings of being left alone on an island at times. Management doesn't focus on any type of team atmosphere and, with any sales position, the company only remembers what you have done for them lately. Their computer programs are getting better, but are currently outdated. Compensation is low compared to other firms.
