      Pros

      None, absolutely atrocious and terrible place to work.

      Cons

      They do not care about the individual advisors success and constantly peddle life insurance. They are backed by MassMutual so while they pretend to be a financial planning firm they are nothing more than a life insurance shop. The Managing Partner and CEO are manipulative and used car salesmen. Do yourself a favor and find a real firm to work for.

      Pros

      The Firm is very growth oriented, innovative, and collaborative.

      Cons

      The Firm is growing quickly, which brings exciting opportunities but also the normal growing pains that come with scaling.

      Pros

      Solid place to move whether you're interested in becoming and Advisor or just working in corporate America and don't want to drown in the noise of large corporate bodies like Fidelity. High energy from everyone, encouraging work ethic and attitudes and very strong communication from HR, and senior managers. Boston office has more use of the location than Bedford, which is fairly quiet. Enjoy the on tap cold brew, definitely a nice perk. Innovation and forward thinking are encouraged, expected, and accepted. This place is a breath of fresh air after working at Fidelity for almost 6 years. Good math up to 5% and 1:1 matching. Very strong and quick communication from senior leaders. Feedback for change and improvement asked for an encouraged. Good culture. Big corporate vibe on a smaller scale. Strong infrastructure. Great benefits. Great support. Managers listen. Hybrid work. Generous PTO. Room to grow.

      Cons

      Health benefits somewhat expensive, although great coverage. Nothing else comes to mind.
