Pros

Given that the US headquarters are based in Minneapolis, people from Minnesota and the Midwest make up the vast majority of its workforce in the home office. That fact alone is a huge positive as the home office permeates “niceness” throughout its ranks. I have worked at large wire houses before that were based in New York and New Jersey… Palpable difference.

Cons

Like any large wirehouse, upward mobility can be limited

Pros

Stable work life balance. The culture is really great, very easy to work with complex management and managers. Willing to help you grow and learn with clients

Cons

Not a lot of room for growth unless you come in the door with that expectation. It can be very easy to get stuck in this role as your pay slowly increases and the job title mostly stays the same. Associate promotions and raises are rarely given and take a lot of coercion to get.
