Pros

At State Street you actually work with people that are around the same age group, so with that being said it's quite enjoyable at work cause you have an easier time in building a very good rapport with the coworkers in the department. The knowledge you gain from State Street is actually above average in terms of understanding the concepts in the investment industry.

Cons

The salary is way below average, let me say that again, very very low. In terms of what other people are receiving its quite discouraing because they way the company operates, this would be actually a very very good place to work for IF the pay is actually the average means of salary.

Pros

Own book runner and strategy. Good work life balance. Good working environment and nice people to work together

Cons

No much growth. Promotion to VP or higher is even forbidden based on company policy. Instead, ask people to move to different role. It doesn't make a lot of sense since it encourage people to find a new job.

Pros

The company has a great severence package. Unfortunately thats a pro because they are laying off workers every 3 months until most of operations are offshore. Decent 401k match and vacation.

Cons

Layoffs, pay is low. Return to office mandate.
