Thank you for sharing your comments and recommending State Street as a good place to work! It is great to read that you have experienced the benefits of flexible work options. As far as growth and development is considered, we have various avenues in our organization to speak up and make our voice heard so that our colleagues get equal opportunities to grow. – I personally believe that current changes put us on a good path to reducing red tape to minimum. One example are multiple bottom-up initiatives where employees drive changes. Anna, Human Resources, Officer

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

They offer resources for learning.

Cons

In my previous roles I've never felt burnout but with this one is the first I was feeling crush. I don't think managers take time to structure the tasks on a 8hrs or 10hrs per day. There are a lot of unrealistic expectations, no work-life balance at all. Even if you made the sacrifice to stay late, you will not be done with the work for the day.
