Pros

Salary is decent depending on position. Traveling with all expenses paid without issues. Contributions to changes and enhancements. Opportunity to meet different people in various job roles and functions

Cons

There are serious cliques and if you are not part of it you are ostracized and will never move up or be promoted. No real training. You are left to figure it out alone. Have separate processes and procedures for different employees. Also has too many systems to find anything. Changes are made without notification. This company Does not necessarily follow the Finra rules and regulations. Compliance is not important. Most of the managers are not licensed but supervise those that are. They do not follow their own code of conduct and turn a blind eye on injustices depending on who it's against. They are aware of horrible and toxic environment but will banish anyone who brings it to light. This was the worse company to work for.

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.
