Pros

I'm in State Street Global Markets as a contractor, so I can't comment on the benefits because I'm not familiar with them, but as a workplace environment, it's a tough place to guage- there's really no uniformity to the way things are run. This can be a benefit depending on which department you're in and who you're working under. I'm able to work from home sometimes, and the lack of process in what I'm doing makes it easier for me to implement my own ways of doing things. The money is pretty decent as well. I'm a contractor, but I'm working 50 hours per week.

Cons

Management management management. Some of Senior Management is great, and some have no idea how to run a staff or how to put good middle management into place.

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.
