Pros

During my 20 plus years with the company, I was continually presented with new opportunities to work as an ex-pat and eventually as a local State Street's in foreign offices.

Cons

Successive waves of acquisition driven growth, coupled with multiple waves of lay-offs have negatively impacted morale, corporate culture and even productivity. An industry issue, not unique to State Street. The problem is that senior management fail to acknowledge it.

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.
