Our Culture Statement, written by our associates, sums up our vision, work environment and business values:

“Scottrade has built its success on a foundation of ‘doing what’s right'. The company is dedicated to providing associates with the opportunity to grow professionally while maintaining a healthy balance of work and home life. It encourages team members to communicate openly across any level of the organization. By fostering such an environment, Scottrade is able to provide the best service and best value to our customers.”

A work/life balance is important to you and to us. As senior branch manager Don Tulloch says, “You are asked to work hard, but not work unnecessarily.” Company hours are built around the stock market’s opening and closing bells, with some flexibility available in certain departments according to special need. And to help you get back into the swing of things after a long vacation or sick leave, our Traveling Brokers and associate back-up systems cover you while you’re out.

A sense of family has always characterized Scottrade’s workplace culture. That’s why we look for people that have dedication to our five core values: Customer Service, Individual Development, Teamwork, Trust and Integrity and Open Communication.

Our sense of family is highlighted in our active open door policy, where both co-workers and management are approachable and encourage feedback. Even our Founder & CEO, Rodger Riney, makes a special point to meet with all levels of Scottrade associates regularly.
