Pros

Stable financial company that is grounded in the industry.

Cons

No path to success due to management. The culture is awful under the Hilger clan, and the leadership vision is even worse.

Pros

Great People. Opportunity for personal and professional growth if you truly want it. Pension if you put in the time. Job is secure if you give some effort. Diverse workforce. Great WLB.

Cons

Upper and even middle management is extremely disconnected from the day-to-day; there's also a high likelihood that your direct manager won't even know what you actually do. Heavily siloed and hard to make cross-division connections. Pay is low for the relative impact to the company. 3 days a week in office for most employees but no real good reason to be in office most of the time.
