Pros

Young Office, Fraternal Culture, Located In Austin I don’t have more than 20 words worth of pros to write in this section

Cons

The CEO is a joke. Like a laugh out loud joke. Senior Management runs the place like an Applebee’s. It’s a “high end” “full service” broker deal that has three intelligent people in compliance and a bunch of third-rate pompous executives that walk around like they built the place brick by brick. The broker dealer was an ancillary piece of NFP, one of the largest insurance/benefits companies in the country, which was sold off and the executive positions were filled based on the human capital in house. I have never worked in a more unprofessional environment in my entire career.
