Pros

5+ years with company. TIAA-CREF allowed me the freedom to develop my skills without feeling micromanaged. I was paid well and treated well. The training was superb. I was offered training in personal and professional development. Employees felt free to attend training when time allowed. I never felt afraid that I was going to be judged for not knowing something; instead, I felt at ease to ask a colleague.

Cons

Not too many cons. Management should do a better job about policing who is hired within management. There were a couple of people that were obviously contributing nothing. It literally felt as if they were allowed to hang around because they were someone's favorite or they hung out with the right group.

Pros

Great benefits that begin day one. Great starting pay, especially for the work that you'll be doing. Flexible hours between 8am and 10p ET.

Cons

The company does not have much growth opportunity outside of the large offices. If you're not willing/able to move, be prepared to stay in a role for lengths of time.

Pros

Super nice people, very helpful.

Cons

Little contract because they all work remote. Only occasional team meetings. Deadline are sometimes set at very unreasonable times. Old fashion ways of thinking.
