I would be a contributing member to the office staff with my work ethic and people skills.
Executive Administrative Assistant (Former Employee), St. Petersburg FL. – April 21, 2013
My work day begins at 8:00 AM and ends at 5:00 PM Monday-Friday.
I learned how to communicate effectively with clients both internal and external in a professional and friendly manner.
I work closely with management as an administative assistant.
I am able to work with a variety of personalities in an effective manner.
My job requires a constant rearranging – more... of work priorities dependant on various situations that may arise during the work day.
I enjoy the associates that I work for and report to as I am very much a people person. – less

Operations Manager (Former Employee), Dublin, OH – March 26, 2013
Pros: great work - i love it. working with the market and all that goes with it.
Cons: none really - unless the advisor you work with makes it a con.....
You can not really write a review about Raymond James unless you work at the Home Office in St. Petersburg, Flordia. Each office is independent and everything can be different in each office. I was fortunate to have several perks.

Friendly in a professional atmosphere
Director of First Impressions/Receptionist (Current Employee), Dunwoody, GA – March 25, 2013
Pros: co-workers
Cons: difficult at times, as a non-family member, working with the family
This is a fee-based wealth advisory office affiliated with Raymond James Financial Services. It is an 8 man, family run business. Great place to work if you need to balance work and family. The clients were the most enjoyable part of the job along with co-workers who really care about their clients.

Exciting Job in a Fast-Paced but Educational Atmosphere
Corporate Credit Analyst, Raymond James Bank N.A (Current Employee), Saint Petersburg, FL – February 28, 2013
Pros: flexibility, opportunity for growth
A typical day for me includes completing reviews on existing loans within the commercial real estate portfolio, as well as helping bankers underwrite new credits and amend existing credits. I have learned a great deal about credit analysis, and I have begun to develop a greater knowledge of commercial real estate and the opportunities and risks associated – more... with real estate investments and lending. The most enjoyable part of my job is being part of a growing department that places a lot of value on the growth and education of its analysts; I frequently assist bankers on underwriting large and/or complex credits, and in many cases they rely on my work to develop their analyses. – less

Very imature management, poor HR function, culture varies by function
Manager (Current Employee), Saint Petersburg, FL – February 11, 2013
Pros: some good people; some functions culture still fun
Cons: poor compensation; hr function poorly run
Imature culture, poor pay, untrained managment, culture that teeters between back-stabbing and simply imature. HR function suffers from lack of strategic leadership and emotional intelligence.

Stressed out and done!
Na (Former Employee), Na – December 20, 2012
Pros: bonus, healthcare
Cons: stress, micromanage, glass ceiling
At RJ it is not what you know it is who you know. Home office associates are greatly undervalued unless you are a manager. Managers are the only people who count, the rest of us were very replaceable. They played favorites and there is no advancement for anyone who is not an insider. You are expected to know everything and train others, including your – more... boss, and never ask for help. They use metrics and time everything, micro managed to the hilt. Mid level management is a joke, glad I'm gone. – less

Good Work Environment To Begin A Career. Not So Much If You Are Experienced
Internship (while in law school) (Former Employee), Saint Petersburg, FL – December 19, 2012
After working in much larger financial services companies, I found that Raymond James was several years behind in product development.

The departmental structure seemed to be in-flux.
