      State Street reviews

      It’s good for takeoff but you have to be really desperate to stay there for longer - Senior Fund Accountant State Street Employee Review

      Pros

      Benefits are great and the right off the street possibility to work with the biggest clients. Other than that it’s really fast paced and well technologically equipped place.

      Cons

      The high rollover at State Street is really certified by the fact that people that are with company about three years are considered long ‘distance runners’ and treated as a knowledge compendium. I have seen too many good talents to leave because of the low pay grade and almost no way for promotion. Consider this company as a good start up but do not stick for longer.

      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.
