The only pros of working with this organization is that you have other colleagues in the same boat as you and can understand why working there was so bad.
Cons
Micromanagement, managers that didn't care for your work-life balance, there was a lot of unprofessional behaviour brought forth by managers to their subordinates. High turnover rate.

Good place to learn the business. Family type office which can work as a pro and con.
Cons
Hard to move around because there isn’t a lot of room for growth. Pay is low in relevance to the banks. You work directly for the advisor so there isn’t a lot of leverage when it comes to increased salary and career growth. If you work for a selfish advisor, you can be stuck in a demanding career for very little pay. A lot of assistants are unlicensed and still do trades which is illegal... if you don’t become licensed it is very unlikely you will ever be hired on by a big bank (licensing is a MINIMUM at the bank) at holliswealth it is a rare occasion for their staff to be fully licensed. No benefits or retirement plan. Advisors struggle to find good staff but it’s very obvious why, can’t compete with banks on their overall package. No good trading platform, how do you quote someone a stock on google? .... training for advisors is required, when I left I felt like I was BEHIND in knowledge, advisor couldn’t teach me anymore... so I left.
