Pros

Used to be the bennies, now the only thing left are the people, of whom many are in pain with there day to day. Managers are managing areas with little to no experience, everything is metrics driven. Always telling you what you did wrong. Extreamly poorly process driven environment. The process is in constant change and the training is for you to absorb on top of your deliverables. I would not recommend to anyone to work at TIAA-CREF

Cons

Management speaks by lying with promises. Used to be a GREAT place - no longer STAY AWAY! The American worker is practically the minority. They are very understaffed and push existing staff for late nights weekend work and then ask for more!! No raises for years and what was once a place for a nice bonus has turned into the candy on an un reachable stick. They have become greedy at the expense oftheir staff. Whcht out for the great flash and up front presenation it falls away quickly if you decide to take employment.
