Pros

- Management generally has good respect for work / life balance. Part of that comes with losing all vacation at year-end, unless there's an exception - Good mentoring within IT Leadership Development Program - Good training and education opportunities - Challenging and interesting projects - Some very strong, world-class businesses and products

Cons

- Lack of strong leadership, vision, and focus across IT divisions - Lack of strong leadership and brand awareness as a company - IT and company as a whole need a MUCH simpler and flatter organizational model - Not enough emphasis and incentive alignment with encouraging innovation - Awful at adopting social media to build the business, even if our core competencies are institutional investment services and solutions ...institutions are still comprised of "people" who discover information socially

Pros

Managers have an open door policy and the atmosphere is very laid back, not at all how I thought it would be especially working for such a respected and well-known company in the financial services industry. Great benefits and vacation policy compared to other companies I have worked forAl.

Cons

Although the company has formal mid-year and end of year review processes, there doesn't seem to be any clear communication on how to move up within the company.
