AllianceBernstein is an excellent company to work for.
Operation Administrator (Former Employee), White Plains, NY – May 9, 2013
The Company offers opportunities for growth within. Management is available for the employees to discuss an issues that may arise. Co-workers are great individuals to woke with. The most enjoyable part of my job is the rapport with my coworkers.

Reorganization was bittersweet.
Portfolio Administration (Former Employee), New York, NY – April 4, 2013
Pros: ontwelve cafeteria
Cons: managers
After a reorganization, Managers with poor people skills were assigned to run group. No training was given, which set low moral
for members in group. I would never recommend
anyone to work at Alliance.

Collaborative Work Environment
AVP, Retirement Specialist (Current Employee), New York, NY – November 25, 2012
A typical day at work involves interacting with my three wholesalers and an average of 40 advisor offices on the phone. As a business owner I am responsible for driving sales in our Investment Only products. This includes proactive calls, referrals, sharing new sales ideas with advisors and COI's. It is crucial that you are a self-starter and well organized.

Productive and friendly workplace.
Personnel Licensing Assistant (Former Employee), New York, NY – August 31, 2012
Pros: cafeteria
Cons: health benefits, 401k
Filed Forms U4 Agent Registration of Securities for new-hires, filed Forms U5 for terminated employees who were registered with FINRA (fka NASD). Submitted all fingerprints cards or new-hires and review RAPP sheets. Interact with internal and external departments and organizations.

Co-workers were all teamplayers. No comments regarding the hardest – more... part of the job. I enjoyed very much working with AllianceBernstein.

The most enjoyable part of the work was the help co-workers provided to each other when the work load was heavy. – less

It could have been a bit more challenging.
Sr. Associate Video Editor/Motion Graphics Artist (Former Employee), New York, NY – August 27, 2012
Upon starting at AB, everything looked very bright. Then the economy tanked and after many rounds of lay offs the morale dropped significantly. Projects would begin as a large colorful challenge and after management decisions, would end up as a bland, non-creative chore.

busy environment
Administrative Assistant (Former Employee), New York, NY – August 24, 2012
Pros: free lunches
The environment was extremely busy but working with the 20 Regional Consultants was a great pleasure. The consultants were friendly and although the day to day task were demanding I never felt overwhelmed. The staff would send various tasks through email such as meeting setups, items needed for meetings offsite or PowerPoint presentations that needed – more... to be edited or created on a daily basis. – less

Proactive, dedicated, cohesive group to provide client service.
Supervisor, Administrative Assistants (Former Employee), New York, NY – July 17, 2012
Pros: beautiful full floor dining service/cafeteria, offices were modern, efficient, clean and top notch, benefits were excellent, technology was a +
Cons: upward mobility was difficult, lack of hands on training and positions for middle managers.
A typical day at work included daily mornng meeting, review of emails and action on those emails covering Venture Capital work as well as interaction and assistance for Global Growth community. Worked daily with administrative assistants to make sure the office ran smoothly. My co-workers were the best part of the job - we worked together for 12 years. – more... It was a team that stayed together through good times and bad during the troubling stock market recovery. – less

Initally looked to be a good place to work, however, poor management let the company slide until it became a very bad place to work.
Senior Compliance Analyst (Former Employee), New York, NY – May 2, 2012
Cons: no competitive salary or annual rasies.
Kept on reducing staff and spreading out everyone's responsibilities. Offered no advancement or competitive compensation. Management proved to be false and not at all believable. Would not recomend anyone to work there.
