Pros

Beautiful campus, lots of nice benefits, flexible work arrangements, strong compensation packages

Cons

Culture is toxic and it permeates everything that is done at TIAA. Highly passive aggressive organization with limited upward mobility. Challenging environment to build trust of others.

Pros

Client first and low cost with a focus on planning. Compensation is better than other similar firms to help you deal with the frustrations/cons of working at such a slow bureaucratic firms. Easily the best clients I have ever worked with compared to working at previous firms.

Cons

Antiquated multiple legacy platforms, service center with ZERO accountability, too many tenured employees, reluctant to change or adapt. WMA's treated as the go to for all communication, service, retention. Constantly over promise and under deliver to institutions and individuals. They throw manpower at problems and have NO scale or efficiency to address issues.
