Management appreciates the work ethic of its employees. Vey willing to accomodate schedules, school, etc.... The work environment is fast paced
Cons
Communication and consistency within the differennt branches of the company needs improvement. Good ideas seem to languish and nevr be implemented.
Advice to Senior Management
Implement a formal process for employees to submit improvements to make the company more efficient. Good ideas from the ranks need to be implemented
Pros
strong name, workday usually ends at 5 for the average employee
Cons
does not seem to be good communication across the various branches from its headquarters. leads to inefficiency especially with their computer systems and continuously unsuccessful updates. causes more of a hassle for employees than it helps them. would be better if more integrated.
Advice to Senior Management
pay more attention to the needs of your employees. Lots of complaints among them.
Pros
Time off whenever wanted or needed as long as you have the time to take. Close relationships. Can be laid back.
Cons
Raises only once a year. Close relationships, I listed this as a pro but can be a con also. Promotions to favorites.
Advice to Senior Management
Get rid of dead weight, seperate professional life from personal.
Pros
room for advancement, a leader in the industry, the company sticks to the orginal missions of autonomy and bias for action, lots of opportunities for motivated individuals
Cons
the industry and economy have created a lot of changes and sometimes they come at you quickly
Advice to Senior Management
Please keep making decisions that put our company at the top of our industry financially and professionally
Pros
- Fortune 500 company
- Good health insurance benefits
- Some groups offer flexible work arrangements (office schedule/hours, remote work)
Cons
- Dysfunctional, undignified behavior is tolerated by senior management; sometimes it appears to be a passive form of management
- Little room for advancement
Advice to Senior Management
Take ownership of the unhealthy corporate culture because it's undermining the strength of your strategy.
Pros
Good pay at least in my position/ department.
Solid work even in difficult times depending on your department.
Decent benefits.
Cafeteria on site.
Parking garage.
Gym.
River to walk along at lunch.
Cons
Unrealistic ideas about getting large complicated pieces of work done in short spaces of time and still meeting quality objectives. Just when you think it could not get any worse, it sure does.
HR tries to support employees, but ultimately they are understaffed.
Advice to Senior Management
It's time to end the good old boy style of management. I'm afraid that proper decisions are not being made and harm is being done to the business because of this. They need to bring objectivity back at the management layer.
Pros
Steady work, opportunities for those who excel
Cons
Compensation somewhat less than industry standard
Pros
Not a bad starting salary if you come from the outside and are needed. Good raises if you are a friend of the manager.
Cons
Fidelity's primary objective is to get more for senior management at the expense of the ordinary worker bees. Nickel and dime the employees on benefits, while taking big bonuses for the top.
Advice to Senior Management
Treat the employees with more respect.
Pros
The work is interesting, big projects, big challenges, opportunities to learn a lot. Cooperation between Business and Tech side, true team work. Business and my latest managemen did support what I did.
Cons
Polities on low level and high level. - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Advice to Senior Management
Continue to improve process and expense management. The estimates submitted by sum team are not realistic and inflated. - -
Pros
Peers and coworkers tend to be helpful and friendly. Lots of perks on campus...car detaling, dry cleaning, Cafeteria, massage, gym all on site.
Cons
Its not what you know it who you know. Seniority, hard work and dedication make no difference when promoting.. Are not flexable with family/personal life. No training or set procedures.
Advice to Senior Management
Give more praise/rewards to employees who work hard
