Pros

State Street has a laid back and easy going workplace environment. One can pretty much buy a ticket for retirement. This company being one of the largest financial services institutions in New England, it carries lots of government support too.

Cons

There is not much of creativity. Most of the management have lived their lives here, and are old school.

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.
