Great People, Great Place to Work

Pros

The people make the place and Wellington employs phenomenal people; smart, motivated, interesting, inquisitive and very fun. I still keep in touch with my former colleagues and hope that will continue. The company had a great corporate culture when I was there - clients come first and employees are expected to act with integrity.

Cons

I have heard through the grapevine that with many senior partners retiring, the corporate culture has shifted, which can happen.

Good atmosphere, mostly a good place

Pros

After ten years in the operational areas of Wellington, my conclusion is the pay is good, the management cares, and it is nice to work for a successful company.

Cons

Once you are in a role, it is rare for you to move. It is a common refrain that people are stuck in their jobs and feel their skills are getting stale (Again this is in non-investment areas: IT, Investment Operations, Finance, etc.) The firm has a culture of expecting you to constantly raise your performance level but it is a vague about how to do that and a good number of people are wondering why they keep being told to step it up but because the firm has a slow to change culture, their attempts to do so are often pushed back on. The firm changed to a less friendly situation during the 2008-2009 downturn and has never gone back so part of their great reputation is outdated.

People are capable and respectful of each other.

Pros

The firm has extremely high integrity. Colleagues are highly capable and generally nice to each other. It's very rewarding to work with some really smart and nice people.

Cons

As the firm has grown larger, it feels increasingly corporate and less entrepreneurial. People are getting more specialized but sometimes at the cost of losing broader perspective.
