Pros

Great compensation and health benefits - decent investment products that are easy to market and sell. Due to the massive attrition they are now starting to offer retention bonuses. Even though they have plans to lay of employees before bonus time.

Cons

Horrid leadership, no direction, very disorganized. Layoffs here and there, senior leadership not in tune with anything. High level executives jumping ship. Culture is very superficial at best, managers, VPs, and senior leaders always ask about your background so they can boast about their personal spoon-fed backgrounds. No career growth - highly political.

Pros

Excellent place to grow economic and investment knowledge. Truly believe in putting clients first and doing what is in their best interest. Great training opportunities to develop various skills.

Cons

Can't say "No" when asked to take on more tasks, thus things are completed in a luster way. Recent departures causing culture of firm to change. Lack of clarity from top of firm. Will likely see a large amount of departures over the next few months. Not going to be the old PIMCO it was.
