I have heard really good things about them. I had a friend who worked there and she said the culture and wlb are great. She also said the benefits are good.

That’s good to know! I heard they are smaller firms so it’s like a family

Hmm I have a friend who does, are you looking into roles at the moment or do you have an offer?

I’m looking into roles but I’m really trying to see how different the experience is between working for a wire house vs a RIA which is less restrictive . I work for a Wirehouse currently and it’s restrictive as hell turning me off

I have a friend from college who currently works in the field. She says becoming an advisor has been nice since they have a more flexible work schedule so it makes for a better work life balance. The unlimited earning potential is also a plus, but that means there's more responsibility and stress attached to it.

I have received an offer from a company and I'm in the second stage of interviews with another company. I am very interested to see if I could make it through for the second company.

Should I be concerned with that?
