Pros

-benefits are decent -work life balance is good -people are nice

Cons

-Nuveen/TIAA management is not focused or clear. TIAA management seems to think they have a strategy for nuveen, but most employees roll their eyes when he speaks as he either doesnt have a clue or is being disingenuous. Management is filled with empire builders...a bunch of gobbling up garbage people and garbage assets. Management takes way too long to make decisions and often makes the wrong one. It seems like nuveen loses most of their good employees, so they are stuck with below average performers. -No management decision is ever made with much thought or analysis. Every time i ask management why they did something they give a response that indicates the decision was made with zero analysis. -The firm has too many sub-scale underperforming funds with massive amounts of costs associated with them. You are better off paying a good person a lot of money than have 3 bad people. Nuveen tends to have a lot of people, but not a lot of performance. The good people leave because there isn't enough budget because of the large numbers of bad people.
