Business Outlook
Pros
Working at statestreet is an opportunity to gain industry knowledge through exposure to a wide client base. Servicing client portfolios gives insight into the workings of the financial system. For those changing industries, some entry level jobs do not require experience in the financial service industry to start.
Cons
Everyone does there own thing and little guidance is given until you make a mistake. The workload can be difficult to start, but once you get the hang of it, it becomes a pretty routine. The office is busiest near the end of each quarter. Do your job and be ready to move on when an opportunity presents itself.
