Pros

The only pro I can see working here is the flexible hours, nothing else other than that.

Cons

Just another employee, all about profits, low pay, low bonus, yearly review you have to be walking on water to get anything higher than meets expectations.

Pros

I joined State Street in the 80s when the company was experiencing growth so there were opportunities to work different jobs and learn new skills throughout my tenure there. Career development was important to employees and Human Resources encouraged managers to develop career paths for employees. The goal was to keep good employees on staff at State Street. There were a good number of long-term employees within the organization and they were well known.

Cons

Over time longevity became less valued and employees with long histories with State Street were let go with each downsizing initiative the company undertook. In summary: State Street is a good place to work but get in, get your experience and get out.

Too much brown-nosing and sucking up in order to get ahead
