Pros

If you are lazy, behind the times technically, don't want accountability, a lack of any modicum of process doesn't bother you & you want to roam the halls at the new buildings instead of focused work..LPL is the place for you!

Cons

Turnover in technology is the highest i've ever seen or heard of unless a failing company. CIO is a sales guy, not a delivery one. Offshore has taken over in lieu of strong technical management so the only thing lower than quality is delivery capabilities. Architecture...there is none. One big house of cards with DOL efforts piling on another stack

Overall friendly and helpful people to work with, and a comfortable work environment. Very nice facilities and opportunities for good benefits. Competitive salary and bonuses. Supportive of a healthy work/life balance.

Cons

Lack of collaboration and communication between teams. Fragmented approach to getting things done - no consistency in workflows. Out of date software tools provided to staff. Lack of clarity in career path.
