Pros

State Street is a good place to work because the executive level of management is committed to efforts at diversification in terms of gender and national orientation. They are committed to offering flexible schedules for most levels of employees to help with the work life balance.

Cons

The problems arise at the divisional level of management. It is my experience that they have very poor relational and communication skills. My division leader is notoriously cheap because what she saves the company in expenses, increases her own bonus at year end.

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

The company has a great severence package. Unfortunately thats a pro because they are laying off workers every 3 months until most of operations are offshore. Decent 401k match and vacation.

Cons

Layoffs, pay is low. Return to office mandate.
