Pros

Walnut Street Securities provides an excellent gateway for independent advisors. Excellent support from the back office and immediate attention is provided when problems arise.

Cons

The main issue with being involved with an independent brokerage firm is the lack of benefits or discounts available with group coverage. This is the downside inherent with being a contracted employee.

Pros

Good support for new people managers were very helpful and always available

Cons

Micromanage every second of your time; have to put in a request to go to the bathroom and wait for someone to grant it Expect you to put exceptions to your time after your shift ends on your own time Half hour lunch by the time I brought my lunch or heated my leftovers and went to the bathroom. I barely had time to wolf it down. Unrealistic call times Systems are horrible and crashing all the time expect you to be in at least 15 minutes before your shift unpaid to set up all the programs on your computer
