Wonderful corporate strategy and a serious intelligent CEO who truly cares about the employees, the culture and the organization

Cons

The computer infrastructure tends to lags and there appears to be "work arounds" before a final fix.

Pros

Incredible clients that truly value what TIAA CREF has helped them accomplish. Great reputation from the clients perspective. Not for profit, mission based financial services company with a solid nearly 100 year reputation.

Cons

Work life balance in IAS is non existent. Job is a total BURN OUT.

Pros

Good pension benefits, nice options for 401k and the company pension plan. That is about it.

Cons

Horrible parking arrangement, you WILL spend good time looking for a spot if you come after 8pm. Employee monitoring - they ARE taking screenshots of everything you do, if you thought government was violating, well, welcome to TIAA CREF. People get fired and escorted out all the time. Diversity - don't let a bunch of crap on the corporate intranet fool you: If by diversity you mean 70% Indian contractors, 10% African Americans & 20% white old guys landed their to get their pension benefits, then you are right on point. When you are a contractor, get ready to be stuck in a lab room with 40 of your peers.
