Pros

Depending on the department and manager, Wedbush can be a very pleasant palce to work. They have what appears to be a very strict and uptight environment, but the ppl are very friendly and easy going.

Cons

Not much upword mobilty, training is minimal and with out structure. Upper management mico-manages task and does not allow for progression, very tight and/or late with reviews and raises.

Pros

Employed for now & flexible work arrangement

Cons

Meritocracy doesn’t exist; promotions are nepotism based I’ve experienced snippy behavior from certain individuals located in the West Coast back office (not all), however, due to their title, it’s accepted. Yet, the moment you return the very same energy, you’re perceived as “aggressive”. These people will throw you under the bus just to save their own hide when in fact, they’re the ones whom created the issue, however will pass blame onto you due to you are the easier target (child-like behavior) Working with other internal departments is a task as I’ve found a department in particular, if you pose a question, their response is cryptic leading you to ask them to expand/explain their vague responses.. it’s wild Be careful what you say in those ping messages, as your statements will be used against you
