      Pros

      State Street is a good place to work because the executive level of management is committed to efforts at diversification in terms of gender and national orientation. They are committed to offering flexible schedules for most levels of employees to help with the work life balance.

      Cons

      The problems arise at the divisional level of management. It is my experience that they have very poor relational and communication skills. My division leader is notoriously cheap because what she saves the company in expenses, increases her own bonus at year end.

      Pros

      Remote work is (rarely) an option, though the approval process is extremely slow and bureaucratic. There are a few well-meaning colleagues who genuinely try to drive positive change before burning out.

      Cons

      Onboarding and HR processes are severely broken, taking 11 months to approve remote status and failing to prepare basic equipment for day one. The workplace culture is deeply hostile, with anger and yelling functioning as the default communication style across teams. Leadership turnover is rampant, resulting in constant re-organizations, splintered teams, and a total lack of strategic direction. Role clarity is non-existent, forcing employees to invent their own daily tasks while receiving entirely contradictory instructions. Direct management is completely absent; I went seven months without any contact from my boss before being laid off via a three-word instant message and short call.
