Pluspunten

The staff is friendly and like to joke around a lot. You must have a sense of humor to enjoy the environment. Management will congratulate you if you make a lot of sales. Not the stereotypical "boiler room."

Minpunten

The entire job is cold calling. You get in at 7:30 in the morning and don't leave until around 8:00 at night (sometimes later). The cold calling will get old very quickly.

Pluspunten

It has a nice office space within a nice building. One feels informed within the atmosphere due to the constant live Bloomberg stream. Small boutique atmosphere. Other brokers are willing to help you with your cold calling skills

Minpunten

Initially broker's have to work insanely long hours (13 hours per day) for less than minimum wage, forced to use overly aggressive sales tactics with absolutely no autonomy or deviation from the cold calling script. Job is 100% cold calling and nothing else. Questions are discouraged and any question in regards to finance or as to why you are pitching a certain stock, or why you are pitching in a certain way is frowned upon. The senior brokers are all immature and have fun picking on new brokers while staying in the office for about 4 hours while new brokers work through the nights. The job is tedious, repetitive, boring, and stressful.
