Vantaggi
Great pay and excellent benefits which get A grade treatment at doctor, dentist and vision. Easy going job without much expectations. Very difficult to get disciplined or fired.
Svantaggi
No room for advancement. Unqualified managers who don't have college degrees and promote based on who kisses their butt the most. Working at Finra DR feels like being on the show Survivor where the idiots survive because they band together and vote out the talented staff. No equal chance given to all to get promoted and a lot of staff are pigeonholed. Company should really practice anti nepotism policy because there are many instances of friends and family being hired through connections and even large members of church groups all in the same dept. Staff is overall not professional and most dress like slobs. Too many cliques and staff only hang out with colleagues in same role. Many instances of ethical violations not reported to upper management which are swept under rug so the dept doesn't look bad or to protect employee who is a favorite of manager. Extreme micromanaging where they want the employee to list all of the assignments they've done for the day and report to manager who times each assignment to see if time is used efficiently.
