Pros

Policies are set in place to ensure that there's a clear understanding of what is expected in the job tasks.

Cons

If your FA decides that you are responsible for everything your life will be miserable. Get out of that office! My FA expects me to do his job. He is only interested in making money, doesn't explain or give clients required disclosure information or prospectuses because he says he doesn't want to confuse them. I breaks my heart to see these customers who trust him continually having their investment bought and sold so that he can make a commission.
