Pros

Most of the perks of working at Nuveen are no longer there (free lunches, chiropractor and massage, etc.)

Cons

HR Senior Management and IT Senior Management were not qualified for their roles and fell into the office politics instead of focusing on the true root or cause of consistent problems. They did not come from investment management backgrounds. They were clearly "yes people" and pawns for executive management. The constant battle between Chicago and LA was ridiculous. It should be recognized that different cities and offices have different cultures and style and one single method or process will not work for all.

Pros

Work/Life Balance Generally good people Strong Benefits

Cons

Sub-par Compensation Promotions are determined by some secret committee HR Reviews are a joke, HR tried to institute an employee grading system, like most companies have, but it failed miserably. Seems like everyone's doing a fine job, but only a few get promoted. HR and managers need to provide honest and actionable feedback to employees.
