TD AMERITRADE Reviews
-
Pros
Excellent benefit package, good salary to start. Communication better than the average company. Office environment very professional. Leadership takes a vested interest in their direct reports. Company very interested in growth and improving the customer experience.
Cons
Extremely limited growth potential for promotions. Each region is lead completely differently, thus creating an unpleasant experience should you find yourself in a region that has poor leadership. You are judged heavily upon your results, and will fall out of favor with the entire leadership change very quickly if results are not what your region/division is looking for. Very much an "old boys network" of leaders.
Advice to Senior Management
Many long tenured leaders should be moved on to other positions. The people I have met and spoken with during my tenure from all over the country have the same opinion, in that many regional leaders do not belong in that position. If TD is looking for long term success, a different approach needs to be taken with middle management.
