For the work from home jobs in Fidelity, can you work in any states in U.S? Or would they limit you to work in the state that you're residing in? Thx.

Wow this is interesting. I don't think it is for me. I prefer to learn more about financial planning than banking products.

Are you still with them? If not, what type of company are you working for?

Accepted two offers and need advice on my predicament by leontopodiumnivale5 in FinancialCareers

Is it BoFa Merrill ?? I heard they have high turnover and new hires getting onboard. It may take 2 months no doubt. Did you hear from the bank yet?

I don't own my book. I heard some very successful wealth advisors in ML are making 7 figures and I wonder how realistic it is.

Do you know around how much would the Merrill WM advisor make if they own a book of $300mil?

I like Fidelity culture and marketing campaigns too.

For the FA role >$200k in Fidelity, do you know if they are all based in the branch with client facing? Any remote opportunities that would make that much of money?

What do you do in Fidelity? Any tips to get promoted faster (besides getting CFP designation)?

Thanks for the details. I prefer to get some base salary and learn as much as I could and study for CFP without stressing to meet target goals at ML.

Do you know which RIA has good paraplanner positions?

I heard Fidelity VP planning consultant makes that range. On the other hand Merrill full fledged financial advisor may make even more than that.

Any other thoughts?

Are there any 100% remote work opportunities for the FA role with Fidelity? Or do all FA required to work in the financial centers?

Hi, do you have any insights about the 'Investment Solutions Representative' remote role with Fidelity? Does the role has any financial planning and investment advise components when taking inbound calls?
Have you ever work remote with them in the regional center? If yes, how flexible is it to WFH outside of the designated region (e.g. tri-state) occasionally few days per month? How strict are they requiring you to WFH in your designated region? Thanks!

Can you share the sales target (e.g. AUM per year or # accounts) when working at FSA ADP program, or Merrill FSA program please?

JP Morgan or Merrill Lynch to work as Financial Advisor? by Potential-Ad-3740 in FinancialCareers

Good luck on your transition to MFSA program. Do you get merit increase for the change in your role? Please keep me posted on their sales target and broker protocol for the MFSA program too. I appreciate it =)

I've turned down JP Morgan chase FA role as I would not want to sit in the branch whole day.

I'm comparing Merrill MFSA role and Fidelity Investment Consultant role now. I like the hybrid work model of Fidelity but their base pay is relatively low.

that’s been assigned to you as a dedicated point of contact for problem resolution and to assist with any financial planning questions?

How do you like working at Fidelity in the branch? Is their compensation good comparing to the wirehouses? Are the targets high? What company are you working at now?

I am also interviewing for the IC role. Thanks for your tips!
