Pros

SB had excellent consulting group research, open architecture, planning tools, client reporting, and desktop tools. Consulting approach to serving clients not product focus.

Cons

Compliance focus on protection the firm to the exclusion of aiding the brokers in solving client problems. Audits only the existence of copies of required forms. Failure to audit the local office's compliance procedures compliance with company requirements.

Interns have no opportunity of being hired after. Not even an option. Not given enough responsibilities either, wish I got more experience out of it.
