Pros

Managers tend to be quite flexible with worklife balance, and people are genuinely friendly and face time is not a big deal here. Good brand name to work for, and plenty of opportunities to move internally.

Cons

Getting a promotion is like finding magical gold dust! You can give them blood, sweat and even tears, but at the end of the day the person who has been sat in their seat longest will be the one to get promoted, even if they are completely incapable of actually doing their job! Their is a strict hierarchy and don't expect to move between the levels in the same team. Internal training and courses are very poor, and few and far between.

Pros

Very minimal pros- you are working in a call center under managers with very little experience.

Cons

Managers are useless. The greater organization refers to the Wealth Advice Center as the “WAC”… yes…. wack. It has a double meaning and the advisors on the ultra high net worth teams are known to make fun of this call center. Very unserious role.
