Pros

Benefits are great although they were once the best in the industry. Now they are the same as everyone else. To me all it is was a decrease in pay.

Cons

communication is very poor from upper management. I really don't think Roger has a clue as to what is going on. The compay keeps saying it is a headcount netural work place however every week an new VP or SVP is hired. There are more high paying high level people now than there ever was. It is very very top heavy

Pros

Amazing retirement contributions! Can you believe 12.5% employer contributions to your 403(b)?

Cons

Unable to move up. Work really hard, put in the extra effort, go above and beyond, and be congratulated with high five. And nothing else. Maybe a tiny raise. Don't hope for a promotion unless you have lots of external experience in management.

Pros

Client Loyalty and one can feel proud they work for a company that is extremely ethical.

Cons

Upside is greatly diminished if you have not come from outside of TIAA-CREF over the last 5 years or so.
