Charles Schwab Employee Review

Former Employee – worked at Charles Schwab

Pros – Liked the values of charity and the firm's ethics. Company is grabbing a large share of Financial Services business.

Cons – Pay, pay, pay! Did I say pay? I can make more working 30 hours a week at a local steakhouse serving tables than using my multiple years experience answering a ton of calls chained to a desk with a bad backache everyday. Benefits are really expensive. No Christmas bonus ever. Not even a card. How cheap is that? Raises, even killing yourself, were stuck at a miserable 2% which got eaten up by higher costs for medical.

Advice to Senior Management – You better start paying more or you are going to have a mass exodus when the economy improves. Morale is low and people feel insulted by 2% raises.

No, I would not recommend this company to a friend
