Pros

Merrill has lots of employees that have been around for a long time, and another group that have been around not long at all and turn over. These are the folks that want to grow and advance and get paid at least the Market rate for salary. The culture is more family-like than most and that probably keeps the long-timers around. Positions are pretty stable and predictable.

Cons

Not much room for careen advancement due the to limited size of the company. Often to move up in the company you're waiting for people to leave the company to create an opening. Overall, pay is under the market average. Hearing from co-workers still there, benefits have been cut in 2009 and pay frozen, 401k match is gone.

Pros

-Coworkers are great. -Training is good. -Customers are usually ok to work with.

Cons

Summary: As a PSS, you'll be expected to support several different products, many of which you will not touch often. It's difficult to be an expert covering so many products and features. They change and update features often, which is both good and bad for customers, but also makes it much more difficult for PSS. You handle really sensitive information (M&A), but are expected to assist multiple customers at once - this is a huge risk. Additional cons: -They implemented a AI agent and then fired several great employees, then increased the rest of the staffs expected workload. -They change ways of working often. -The knowledge base is often out of date. -There's almost always a backlog, but the clients work can be "urgent" - making some clients upset on wait time.
