Pros

Many wonderful people throughout the company, and the service teams are absolutely amazing.

Cons

There is not a lot of stability and many employees are disgruntled or unhappy. Those who have been with the company a long time and happy are now uncertain about the changing environment. The new hires are happy, until they see behind the curtain. Merrill hires young associates who do most of the work for the older sales reps, but as soon as they figure out they are not going to make money or reap the benefits, they leave for a better opportunity. That is Merrill's SOP; there is constant turnover. The company is still going through a massive transition after change to private equity management, which is causing many internal politics challenges. It is unclear what will happen with the business. No job is completely secure.

Pros

-Coworkers are great. -Training is good. -Customers are usually ok to work with.

Cons

Summary: As a PSS, you'll be expected to support several different products, many of which you will not touch often. It's difficult to be an expert covering so many products and features. They change and update features often, which is both good and bad for customers, but also makes it much more difficult for PSS. You handle really sensitive information (M&A), but are expected to assist multiple customers at once - this is a huge risk. Additional cons: -They implemented a AI agent and then fired several great employees, then increased the rest of the staffs expected workload. -They change ways of working often. -The knowledge base is often out of date. -There's almost always a backlog, but the clients work can be "urgent" - making some clients upset on wait time.
