Pros

The people and lower/mid-level management were great. The benefits, pay and time off were great.

Cons

Even though you have tons of time off, whether you can schedule it is a constant worry. Time off is basically a round-robin system that favors no one and ultimately benefits no one. Constant required overtime and half hour lunches. Internal job prospects are few and far between. Lack of recognition for top performers. The fact that they won't sponser a series 7 for every client facing employee is a disservice and major flaw. Management says that the call centers are the best place to hire internally from, yet they seldom do.

Pros

Benefits Retirement Plan Stable financially If you have a supportive boss this is a great place to work

Cons

Credit not given for hard work and results that you produce (in some departments but not all) There are many clicques there which go way back Company resists changes when customers say they should change. (beware if you bring this up) They have a lot of contracts that are confusing to customers and that don't let customers take their money out when they need it. Read the fine print always with them
