      TIAA-CREF...we get it half right.

      Pros

      Depending on your age, TIAA-CREF automatically contributes between 10-18% of your base salary to a retirement plan after 6 months of service. The campus in Charlotte is beautifully landscaped and a relaxing place to take your lunch or break.

      Cons

      Layoffs. About 175 employees were laid off in Charlotte so far in August alone. Many of those former employees were key players and now there is no succession plan to fill those huge gaps that were created by the layoffs. This is not the first time that management has taken action before fully thinking about the consequences.

      Pros

      The Company role and vision is very respectable. It was started with a very noble purpose, and for the most part that responsiblity has carried forward throughout TIAA's existence. It is an honor to be serving for the greater good.

      Cons

      Senior Management, the Compensation, and the Work / Life Balance.

      Pros

      In Wealth Managament, schedule is flexible. Great people to work with. We get to serve as a form of quality control for the financial plans that are being presented to clients. Training for new hires has improved drastically. Product options for client is growing each day. Constant changes in planning approach, which in turn creates new opportunities within department. Managers don't seem to micro-manage and they allow you to create your own schedules with the advisors. Expectations are reachable. Very good benefits that include Medical, Dental, Vision, and very good retirement that gets better as you get older. They do the right thing for the client.

      Cons

      Sometimes, the position can get repetitive.
