Pros

- You can work remote (at least while I was there) - Onboarding is fun

Cons

- You are tracked by the literal second of each day every day - Every small, minute error is tallied, and counted against you - You are the public's punching bag for the company - You are constantly pitted in an impossible situation of not knowing the answer, while not being allowed to say so. You can try to seek help, but ultimately, you are not equipped for success - There are 0 opportunities to network as every second of your day is completey dedicated to being on the phone

Pros

-Benefits are comparable to other brokerage firms. -Workforce is starting to become younger -Free Coffee -Walking trails, onsite clinic, onsite fitness centers.

Cons

-This company relies on people fresh out of college who are entering a cuthroat job market, or older associates who are too invested in the company to leave. This is not a place for experienced industry professionals. -Management and hiring practices based solely off of nepotism. -Not publicly traded so the company's Senior Leadership has ZERO transparency. -Return to office policies made by out of touch senior leaders, and during hybrid we are at more than maximum capacity. Logistics of this have not been addressed. -Pay is totally made up and based on feelings rather than acheivement. It is substantially lower than industry average. -Bad behavior by management is rewarded, and those who abuse their team are promoted. -Onsite Cafeteria food, while subsidized A LITTLE TINY BIT is completely inedible and has given myself many people I know food poisining.

Pros

Fidelity has awesome benefits! Paternity leave, Profit Sharing, Education Reimbursement, lots of PTO, and the Fidelity brand is well received by clients.

Cons

Recent restructuring in the remote space has inspired me to leave this review. Fidelity is purposely siloing internal candidates. In the remote space, they stop announcing internal opportunities, instead only sharing this info with management (gatekeepers of you will). They have also increased the amount of roles that are external hire only. Roles that are clear promotions, can't even apply for. Many roles only have one path, regardless of what is promised.
