Pros

Largest company with independent advisors. Worked for several advisors as an Administrative Assistant, great guys to work for, easy online platform to use with great support customer service team.

Cons

Because they are independent advisors, you don't work directly for the LPL Company so job security is not there, especially since independent advisors can change their brokerage firm or close their shop at will.

Pros

Competitive pay — Compensation is solid compared to industry averages. • Pockets of good people — There are teams with genuinely decent, hardworking individuals trying to do the right thing. • Occasional bright spots — A few groups operate professionally despite the broader culture.

Cons

Retaliation everywhere — Speak up and you’re targeted. • Fabricated reviews — Feedback is made up to justify punishment. • Toxic cliques — Closed circles run the place and crush anyone outside them. • Hostile leadership — Belittling and aggression are normalized. • Politics over skill — Competence is irrelevant; alliances decide everything. • Fear‑driven culture — Employees stay silent because retaliation is guaranteed. • Hypocrisy everywhere — You’re excluded, then blamed for not being involved. • Values are a façade — The company talks integrity but operates on intimidation.
