Pros

The company is shifting its business model from being almost entirely B2B, to embracing a B2C strategy. As such, a new brand identity and marketing positioning comes with it. So there's a ton of possibilities to do really great things. At TIAA-CREF, possibility does not equal opportunity.

Cons

Very poor senior management in the digital marketing group. (Stronger, more competent leadership in other areas of the marketing organization). A strong focus on the superficial without a strong understanding of the broader strategic needs. Poor relationships with other areas of the business. Not ready or mature enough to truly compete with the big boys in the B2C market. Too much of a focus on things that aren't important. No focus on talent retention. Poor to very poor management oversight. Employee morale within digital marketing is fairly low.

Pros

Great Benefits and Pay. Exceptional Bonus Plan

Cons

Work life balance. As with most management positions, if you want to advance you need to work 50-60 hours per week.

Pros

Great benefits, clear and consistent culture that you can believe in, and many development opportunities for those who are willing to put in the effort

Cons

Lack of transparency in wage ranges and hiring process make the interview process difficult and unnecessarily drawn out. Talent acquisition is overwhelmed, slow, and sometimes unresponsive.
