NOT THE PLACE TO WORK IF YOU ARE A SINGLE PARENT - Customer Relationship Advocate Fidelity Investments Employee Review

Pros

Decent pay and sponsorship for licensing.

Cons

Lack of consideration for single parents who work from home with children. If you upset management in any way they will turn their back on you. Management should be more considerate and truthful. If you use your PTO too soon, but dont go over your limit, they will look to terminate you. If you fail the exam one time they will terminate you. If you have to take care of your child they will terminate you. You put in so much effort and time to study for the Series 7 and if you fail they will look at you badly. All in all, if you have a child and are a single parent and think Fidelity will understand if you have to help your child....they WILL NOT and will terminate you if you are a great employee who does their job well.

Pros

Benefits including profit sharing and bonuses are great. The breadth of this company provides a great opportunity to try out different career paths or boost your current one.

Cons

In my current role, I am working overtime more often than I'd like with recognition that seems to only go so far until it sizzles out. That may be tied to the size of the company itself, where promotions work in a "trickle down" manner.
