Pros

Good location, flexible hours, 25cents soda.

Cons

No interactions with coworkers, it seems that 80% of employees are zombies. Management have no clue of what you are doing. Don't ask, don't tell policy. Meetings are useless. Raises are ridiculous. You can be busy for 3 days without having a minute for yourself but can be sitting around for a whole week doing nothing. Supervisors are a joke. No communication with management. Some employees don't even have a degree. This company is just a joke.

Pros

LPL provides the resources for advisors to be successful while giving them their independence to run their practice the way they best see fit. Great access to products and research. Work with advisors to maximize marketing and sales strategies.

Cons

Technology and trading fees can be high at times. If someone is not able to work with limited incentives or sales requirements, not the place to be.
