Once upon a time there was a ship called Titanic ..... - Anonymous employee Edelman Financial Engines Employee Review

This company once upon a time was way ahead of the curve but like all good things it's glory days are coming to an end. This company will be remembered in the annals of corporate America as a great example of reverse takeover. The Mutual Fund store execs run this company now. No technology direction, no product direction, no marketing direction. Their growth strategy is to fire everyone and simply hire a bunch of advisors (check the careers section page). Funny story, advisors are actually the most miserable bunch who are asked to get on the phone and cold call people for their money instead of helping everyday Americans retire better. Competition is eating their lunch, employees are overworked but their feedback is never listened to, no career growth, managers are clueless and the company is cutting cost (and corners) in every way they can . There is backstabbing and politics all around. Telltale signs of people trying to survive on a sinking ship.
