Pros

LPL is a growth company among their peer group. They have experience 3 times growth over the last 3 years and should continue to grow following the 2009 recession. LPL as a firm is positioned to grow their independent model and RIA model by focusing their efforts on the recruitment of this space in 2009 and beyond.

Cons

With the expansive growth over the last few years LPL has experienced the normal output from Mergers and Aquisitions. The rapid growth has required fast paced hiring practices in the 2007 and 2008 timeframes which has resulted in low employe tenure and training issues.

Pros

Great pay and getting OT pay. Awesome team of SMs and RTEs who felt like family and we all wanted to see each other succeed. I was exposed so a lot of situations which strengthened my skill set. Learned the SAFe model and it looks great on resumes. I personally had a great boss, bosses boss, and RTEs.

Cons

Executive leadership is ruining the culture. Many of the amazing Directors, AVPs and RTEs left due to the poor Executive leadership who do NOT know a single thing about Agile principles. Releases are 1x/mo so you have to work one Saturday a month which can sometimes be longer than a normal workday. Release Mgmt team is very difficult to work with and can be very disrespectful. They don’t hide it and it’s accepted. Execs killed remote work.
