      Good place to get initial experience but dont make it a career.

      Portfolio accountant
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Gret place to get entry level accounting experience. Good hours Good benefits Nice building Associates are good people Work from home access for some

      Cons

      The harder you work the more work you get, the more you mess up the less you get. Management doesnt reward hard work they reward negative work. Work has gone to a manufacturing scheme, meaning you dont do accounting, you do data entry for one piece, wouldnt be suprised if all work is moved to India in 10 years.

      A good starting job.

      Manager - fund administration
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Speaking for the office in Kansas City, this is a good place to begin a financial career at an entry level. The benefits (insurances, vacation, tuition reimbursement) are in line with most similar companies. The people overall are good to work with.

      Cons

      For entry level employees, there is paid overtime, which is a great benefit. For managers and above, overtime is not paid, but is definitely required. The demoralizing thing about it is that various groups have differing work hours. There are some groups that never work over 40 hours a week, whereas there are many others that work 50+ hours weekly, which has caused some rifts in the groups. Communication is also a major shortfall, whether it is communicating new ideas or tools, which groups tend to have to discover on their own, or from upper management discussing layoffs. The latest round of layoffs was announced in one sentence the middle of a multi-paragraph e-mail from the CEO.
