I'd certainly say it value to my emplyer but they didn't follow the IFA minima reccomendations and constantly got round things by suggesting that while the individual was of MIFA status their current job was mostly PIFA etc etc ...
As to whther I would take it off of course I wouldn't it was free and some people put value to it, but until we end up with a closed shop ro something similar the IFA will never be any good....all the pay rises I ever achieved I did though personal negotiation, I even joined the union and its never did any good...too far from London!
I feel that its ultimately up to us to determine the level of pay we accept...where else would professionals of several years standing with numerous publications etc accept salaries too small to get mortgages on!
