Merrill Lynch PMD program

Mar 26, 2019 3:36 pm

I’ll keep this brief. I currently work at a brokerage firm, pretty well recognized. Along the likes of an Oppenheimer. I’ve been offered 65k guaranteed a year for 43 months for Merrills PMD program. It is currently more money than I’m making. I’ve been at my current firm for just a bit over a year. I’m 25 years old, do I just stick my head down and ground and pound the old way with 400 calls a day or go to Merrill?


My question is short and simple. I know the PMD program had a horrible reputation a few years back but I’ve also heard it’s improved a bunch since 2014/15/16 etc. Is this true? Or is it still a horrible operation?

It’s been some years since you posted this. What did you end up deciding, and what happened next? What’s been new since then??
