Pros

The people and the carmarderie at State Street is a huge reason employees stick around at SSC. Long lasting bonds and friendships are made that can last a lifetime.

Cons

The size of the organization makes it difficult to get noticed. If you are used to receiving promotions and moving up the "corporate ladder" then SSC is not suitable place for you. The communication as well as most places can be much improved and engage others in decision making. Everyday you may think you are going to make a difference, but when you sum it up, the only difference makers are at the top.

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.
