Pros

The pay and benefits are good.

Cons

The company is terrible. They make it hard to help the customer with a lack of communication. The fraud department blocks accounts and places holds all of the time and they offer no explanation except that they are investigating. I feel they are in violation of certain regulations by doing this. It's almost as if the back office is working against you. It's really hard to get assistance. They throw a ton of training at you at once and you don't really learn anything. Each branch is different, but overall I don't feel valued by the company.

Pros

My coworkers are good, Training staff are great. 4 weeks of PTO is nice and the pay is decent along with a 7% 401K match.

Cons

I have strong reason to suspect I was placed on a PIP for reporting a employment violation to HR, I have had approved PTO get unapproved with 10 days of the vacation with no compensation, my area region leader is horrible. They have very weird rules to disqualify any compensation or even metric recording of repeat investors, even though the advisor I work with gets full credit and compensation, the branch manager and area leader get full metric credit and increase to their bonus for it and if another employee referred it they still receive their full flat bonus for the referral. If a branch is understaffed you will be required to essentially become a branch manager and will be expected to take on numerous branch operations but they will not adjust your wealth metrics.
