Wouldn't recommend - Data Scientist Franklin Templeton Employee Review

Pros

Good pay. They gave a lot of freedom to accomplish ambitious goals. The project was interesting from a theoretical and practical perspective. Technology infrastructure and database system is pretty good for a financial company. They're investing a lot in that. There are a number of smart, high quality people.

Cons

The company is sick and moribund. The future has firmly been set in India, so I wouldn't recommend as a long-term option for Americans. Very little interest or feedback from manager.

Pros

Good benefits (401K match, employee stock options, etc.), depending on the department you work in you could have some decent flexibility regarding work from home,

Cons

Incredibly disorganized from the very top of the organization which only gets worse as SVPs and EVPs don't retire and just clog the hierarchy. Everyone is involved in the decision making process which means that no decisions end up getting made, or they are made too late and then the executives sacrifice a lower level manager for not acting quick enough. Certain corporate departments that aren't directly involved in client facing environments get treated incredibly poorly by the client facing departments. Raises are nonexistent (not even 3%).
