Pros

There were no good reason to work for State Street. Unable to advance and the culture was very negative. The best thing about states street the company matching contributions to 401k. However, did have a good work life balance with the ability to work from home.

Cons

There were many cons, bad culture, bad pay, limited opportunities available for advancement, managers unconcerned with career mentoring for career advancement, repetitive job.

Pros

Own book runner and strategy. Good work life balance. Good working environment and nice people to work together

Cons

No much growth. Promotion to VP or higher is even forbidden based on company policy. Instead, ask people to move to different role. It doesn't make a lot of sense since it encourage people to find a new job.

Pros

They offer resources for learning.

Cons

In my previous roles I've never felt burnout but with this one is the first I was feeling crush. I don't think managers take time to structure the tasks on a 8hrs or 10hrs per day. There are a lot of unrealistic expectations, no work-life balance at all. Even if you made the sacrifice to stay late, you will not be done with the work for the day.
