Pros

State Corporation is a great place to get started in the industry if you don't have any experience. However, if you do have a good idea of where you are going and some years working in financial services under your belt, you're probably better off trying a smaller firm that will offer better benefits and a quality of life.

Cons

State Street underpays. Plain and simple.

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.
