Pros

Retirement contributions and preferential treatment for minorities (if you are one)

Cons

Selectively drop securities licenses of straight white males while maintaining the same licenses for anyone that is a minority, female, or LGBTQ. Handicaps straight white males from moving up by selectively dropping licenses. If you are a veteran you will have the slowest upward mobility out of all groups unfortunately. Employees were able to accurately predict promotions based on gender, sexual preference, and race instead of job performance. Witnessed the CEO provide his contact information to any fellow minority while ignoring straight white male counterparts completely. Despite being asked to help train dozens of new reps in sales skills only to watch them advance in front of the people assisting with their development.

Pros

Great work life balance, good benefits, decent pay, ease of running your own practice as an “advisor”, and healthy work environment

Cons

Management styles can vary and affect your experience, upper management doesn’t seem to be well equipped to ensure the organization’s success but it is resilient nonetheless.

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
