Pros

A good opportunity to get professional licenses, job experience, a good benefits package, and salary opposed to commission.

Cons

The job sucks the soul out of people. You will get paid next to nothing because Fidelity is the Walmart of the financial services industry (i.e. low cost provider). The company is top heavy and bottom heavy.. Middle management are complete puppets with cozy jobs but no input. The company has a sweatshop mentality and does not see its employees at added value. They breed mediocrity in all aspects of job performance.

Pros

Benefits including profit sharing and bonuses are great. The breadth of this company provides a great opportunity to try out different career paths or boost your current one.

Cons

In my current role, I am working overtime more often than I'd like with recognition that seems to only go so far until it sizzles out. That may be tied to the size of the company itself, where promotions work in a "trickle down" manner.
