Pros

Amazing retirement contributions! Can you believe 12.5% employer contributions to your 403(b)?

Cons

Unable to move up. Work really hard, put in the extra effort, go above and beyond, and be congratulated with high five. And nothing else. Maybe a tiny raise. Don't hope for a promotion unless you have lots of external experience in management.

Pros

Compensation is great for advisors once they are promoted to VP. Everyone else has to wait a year and hope for a good rating that's more of a game than merit based

Cons

Woke culture, reverse discrimination, very frustrating to do business with as a client
