Cons
At least in the Wealth Management dept, the morale is low. Very low. Support staff is not valued and the entire business operates around the Financial Advisors. Strategically, this does make sense because they're the ones bringing in the money. However, the complete lack of satisfaction felt by the assistants and the associates means that there is constant turnover and it often feels like the place is going to crumble within. Also, the talent metric (SMART Goals) that everyone is subjected to throughout the year is the biggest waste of time and energy. Middle management pool is bloated and lacks talent. The managers come off as ineffectual and unconcerned.
