State Street – “average place to work”
Pros
this review is for SSGA, Canada:
1) nice office but mediocre pay compared to the SSGA staff in boston
2) the employee culture in SSgA canada is decent.
Cons
1) too many VPs within a department. This can cause 'too many cooks spoils the soup' situation. VP is like another word for Managers in SSGA
2) If you are not into analytics or portfolio management in canada, there are very limited growth for SSgA canada as most of the positions are located in boston
Advice to Senior Management
Different groups in the same department whose functions are related but like to play the blaming game, make the employees feel more about the company and then less about the function to eliminate the 'principal-agent' problem.
