Avoid the Chicago office - Recensione dipendente - Private Client Associate presso AllianceBernstein

The office is structured so that your fate is totally dependent on what advisors you end up with. Their job is to sell and then all the work that's created from that falls 100% on the associates. Some are grateful/understanding, others are a nightmare. Poor work/life balance. Micromanagement at all levels creates a stressful workplace. Little room for growth, the firm gives opportunities that always "add to" your workload. It's never "instead of". Almost 100% turn over in the past two years.
