Unexciting place to work

Pros

NTRS is a great place to work if you are young or do not are much about advancement. The company is generally sound and provides nice benefits.

Cons

Notoriously difficult to move around internally. The bank does not do enough to provide opportunities to its employees. Training is mandatory, but mostly useless.

Pros

Stable place to work, good management and pay is reasonable compared to competitors. Office facilities and morale are generally good

Cons

Training is poor to non-existent, meaning employees stagnate in their job roles and cannot progress. Not enough long-term thinking by management.

Pros

Pension and 401(k) are the only upsides.

Cons

Northern Trust is extremely top heavy and prejudiced towards GOLD program kids and corporate politics. Turn over rate is extremely high so you constantly run into problems with accounts that were never solved because the analyst left the company. Pay range is extremely depressed compared to other companies. DO NOT WORK HERE!
