Pros

Flexible work arrangements and solid core business. Opportunities for internal transfers if you are interested in joining another team. Highly respected within the industry.

Cons

Slightly below average compensation for the amount of work. There has been high turnover recently within our group due to employees leaving for greener pastures.

Pros

During my 20 plus years with the company, I was continually presented with new opportunities to work as an ex-pat and eventually as a local State Street's in foreign offices.

Cons

Successive waves of acquisition driven growth, coupled with multiple waves of lay-offs have negatively impacted morale, corporate culture and even productivity. An industry issue, not unique to State Street. The problem is that senior management fail to acknowledge it.
