Pros
Decent benefits; ability to work remotely; growth opportunities or abilities to apply for other opportunities.
Cons
Was only part of AG for ~1 as my firm was acquired as part of the Ladenburg acquisition. There was a lot of talk about "Shared Services" however the rollout and implementation was rocky. There was a lot of inference about "the best" being selected to be slotted into roles however when the rubber hit the road SAI seemed to dictate who got jobs and who didn't (at least the management jobs). When the music ended I was offered a new role (after applying for half a dozen jobs) I was offered a position at a significant downgrade in level pay. When lots of lip service didn't appear to be resulting in being tapped for a job I choose to look outside the organization. I'm glad I did. Sad to leave AG; glad to have a better role/opportunity with a company that is forward looking.
