I work daily on reporting for a list of 10 mutual funds. This includes running macros in the morning and afternoon. - Fund Accountant State Street Employee Review

Pros

The overall demands of the job are fairly limited to 9-5 workday and rarely is work outside that required on a daily basis.

Cons

The level of pay compared to the amount of work put in is slightly lacking. I feel that they could do a better job of retaining employees with better pay.

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.
