Pros

No weekends, but only because the stock market is closed. Be sure if it wasn't they'd force mandatory weekends

Cons

Exceedingly low salary for the industry. No accountability amoung departments, forced mandatory overtime, no regard for the employees personal needs, incompetant supervisors that shirk responsibility when convenient and micro manage you down to the nano second of your day Steeped and motivated only by the good ole "Not what you know, but who you know" politics so typical of call centers, but even more so at this company Only way to get out is to quit or transfer, but transfers unlikely if you don't have a direct manager that loves you and for that be prepared to be a major brown nose!

Pros

Total compensation is competitive, new hires are eager to jump in, and it seems like a company strategy is finally coming together. Things continue to move slowly though because projects from the loudest voice or most tenured associates tend to get prioritized and throw off critical investments into fixing data, process, and tech debt issues to mature our ability to market like it’s 2026 instead of 2016.

Cons

Too many bottlenecks to execution; If you’re seeking to make a meaningful impact, don’t expect it fast. Expect to navigate uncertainty while the company claims to help clients do this for their portfolios instead of helping associates to help clients — This is branded fluff for leadership without clear direction, driving teams to waste too much time and energy in meetings and boring demo decks every month to make being busy look like value by being the loudest voice, which is what you’ll notice many of the most tenured associates do best. Slides might look pretty but AI doesn’t make sense of this noise and clients don’t benefit from all the hours spent in PowerPoint. Unclear ownership leads to internal redundancies or team friction, on top of the inconsistent documentation and fragmented data siloes that are ironically impeding readiness for AI mandates coming from the CEO.
