Pros

Paychecks deposited on time, most employees know their goals by the middle of the year, Halloween party is really fun!

Cons

"Be great from anywhere" abruptly shifted to "return to office" with a confusing and frustrating mandate that could be interpreted differently by each business unit. Business units that wanted to outsource or hire friends chose more aggressive RTO plans that isolated and disengaged team members who were hired as remote. Technology is outdated and not prioritized. "Digital transformation" and "Agile" projects fizzle out because leadership fails to define goals and success metrics, or changes focus before team-defined goals are met. Product teams are really project managers, with no concern for user experience or underlying technology. Despite the relative youth of the firm, most new executive hires come from outdated/old-school companies and don't value innovation or new ideas. Recent layoffs focused on older team members and new hires are focused on junior roles.

Pros

LPL is extremely flexible and helps put people in jobs that they will excel in. There is a ton of horizontal mobility and management is super flexible on hybrid options

Cons

The pay is lower than market average but worth it for the flexibility
