      Pros

      The company offers a lot of training opportunities Holds town hall meetings to inform employees of the company’s happenings

      Cons

      Too many layers of management makes it difficult to get things done Lot of backlogged work makes it frustrating for the member firms it tries to regulate For an organization that prides itself on investor protections, FINRA should do a better job fighting for it employee morale is low when hard work doesn’t lead to much

      Thanks for taking the time to share your thoughts. We are in the midst of transforming our Examination and Risk Monitoring program to make it more effective and efficient, relying heavily on feedback from current and former employees as well as member firms and other stakeholders. We believe the changes we are making will mitigate or eliminate the frustrations you mention, among many other improvements. If you have additional feedback, you can email glassdoor@finra.org.

      Pros

      Some of the nicest and most helpful people, but fewer as they keep getting laid off or pushed out because of toxic leadership. The mission is a high priority for some. Great place to work for a very short time, then go.

      Cons

      Poor leadership, constantly changing without taking any time to understand impacts. Decisions only benefit a small group of friends who only respect other former FBI agents and their contributions. Morale is in the gutter and it comes off as intentional. Women are disappearing from management ranks and only tolerated as long as they are agreeable. People get resources based on popularity with the in group so some teams burn out while others have little to do.
