Business Outlook
Pros
During my time at State Street I was able to grow tremendously and make great and lasting friendships. Benefits are okay - nothing special. Was able to gain frequent exposure to senior management (MC members). Role, rank, and industry exposure allowed me to move on to a new firm with ease.
Cons
For every one 'A' person there are 5 B's. 300 C's and 30 D's and F's. There is a lack of vision and strategy around the evolving landscape of the core businesses. State Street is very political in the upper ranks. Investment in human capital is lacking. Most business and corporate units are understaffed or have average people in the seats. Driving true change throughout the organization is very difficult as a result.
