Pros

Get an office close to home with an assistant. They pay for training They have summer regionals whereas you can take your family They offer trip incentives

Cons

Allot of hours 70 plus a week Hardly any time for family and kids- they want you to work evenings and weekends too Not very good health insurance People tell you they are here to help, but they aren't Difficult to be successful if you do not inherit assets Allot of stress and phone calls from development leaders who never worked as an FA before. Allot of turnover

Pros

They have allowed the HBA’s (home based associates) to remain remote

Cons

Micromanagers, they say they are okay if you want to apply to another department within the firm but the minute you do it’s like you get a target on your back. The pay doesn’t match the workload and the word is that you have to quit and then come back to make what you should already be getting paid. Benefits are terrible but 401k is pretty good
