Pros

Senior executive leadership is really trying to do the right thing and make it right for the employees. Due to the nature of the business, you learn a lot of knowledge that's beneficial to personal financial management.

Cons

Although the executives are trying, it doesn't get translated down the chain ethically. There's too much bureaucracy in middle management and it's all about who knows who and not necessarily who's the most qualified. Opportunities for growth is very limited and not based on your performance. Also, they will promote from their "inner circle" first before considering anyone from the outside, regardless of the qualifications they bring. Many are set in their Fidelity ways and not very receptive to innovative ideas.

Pros

Probably one of the best place to balance work and life. People in Fidelity are typically very accommodative and supportive.

Cons

Not so much for the company itself. It's the financial market is no longer in its golden age. Fidelity in turn, is forced to make many tough decisions which has impacted a lot on both morale and quality of work. Still, it's a big company and can survive without a problem.
