Pros

A lot of information resources provided for an individual grow. TIAA-CREF gives you an opportunity to learn their business with learn at your own pace online courses. With the amount of daily work you will have to deal with they give you the option of learning on your own time. Wherever you work within the company, you will find great people to work with. There are people who have been there for 30+ years and that says a lot.

Cons

Within some departments, lack of clear process makes work bottleneck. Work flow can suffer.

A once proud company with honorable intentions is no more

Pros

The mission is still honorable, but it has been put on the back burner by self serving individuals running the firm into the ground. It's truly a shame.

Cons

Extremely arrogant management, silo fixated and poor leadership, no accountability at the senior ranks. Worse, this not for profit company is now on a race to the bottom with a lack of ethics and honest business practices and no checks and balances.

Pros

Pay and benefits are good.. Vacation time isn't bad either. Annual bonuses can be generous if you're actually good.

Cons

Systems are horrible, very ancient.. Very slow. But it gives you a bigger bonus.
