Pros

If you are remote, there is good flexibility. Interesting projects.

Cons

Way behind on the times. Technology is old. Layoffs give uncertainty. Not flexible at all if you are in office. They won't let you pick up / drop off kids at school because you need to be in office for a strict 9 straight hours (and are heavily monitoring you). Used to be a family focused firm, but that has changed to try to get people to quit instead of paying severance. 4-5 years ago, this was a great company. Things have changed. I would highly NOT recommend working here. It is dropping in best places to work. Pay isn't great. Career growth is very slow. ELT is very removed from the average working individual. Workers / contractors in India are replacing US workers. Mckinsey is taking over the company with useless consultants who are making 1M+ and doing nothing. Tons of money being spent on NY office. It is really a mess. Not recommend.

Pros

- Had a 100 year successful legacy business model - Financial advisors and staff in field branches have pockets of good cultures

Cons

- Home office culture is horrible and getting worse (cronyism, poor leadership, lack of care/focus for associates) - Regressive HR policies - Senior leaders are disconnected from reality - Consultants running amok - Poor pay and even poorer benefits (unless you are a partner) - Technology introductions and org changes have been botched time and time again - Company is way off course to achieve its long term goals
