Great salary and management, but very stressful work - Platinum Sales Representative E*TRADE from Morgan Stanley Employee Review

It is a friendly work environment—at least at the Gilbert office. Colleagues are very helpful, and managers are highly supportive of your work. I enjoy working here; there is no office politics. The pay is good, and there are plenty of opportunities to transfer to different roles.

The new system is nowhere near as good as the old one; I don't know why we were forced to switch. Sometimes, even after you submit a workflow, the new system doesn't even show it. There are plenty of opportunities to transfer to other roles, but applications go completely unanswered. You have to contact HR, yet they barely seem to care. It’s essentially a call center; even though your colleagues are great, you never know if the next customer might ruin your entire day.

My team leads were always really supportive and knowledgable Some work from home Decent benefits Legal insurance benefit was invaluable Management was flexible with things like FMLA Education and licencing opportunities were plentiful and paid for by the company, mostly had to be done on your own time (not sure if that's standard).

Being promoted from team lead (hourly) to management (salary) was, in every case I saw, a huge increase in time and stress requirements and at least a 30% decrease in pay. They treated managers very poorly in teams I was exposed to. The company values are nice but didn't influence management as much as profit and posturing My manager's manager was very meanspirited, even cruel, to our manager and he emulated that behavior, to the detriment of the team. Took months and intervention from upper management to get my name changed Moving to more and more in-office Office environment was uncomfortable, oppressively lit Very few breaks, lots of pressure to be fast and have three things going on at once. Very limited and strict sick time, always shortstaffed
