Pros

I don’t know how Fidelity continues to get high rankings for workplace. The pros are the facility, lunch, and resources that are available for you to learn outside your role via seminars and guest speakers. That’s only if your business unit can or will allow you the opportunity to step away from your responsibilities to attend.

Cons

Everything else, a toxic culture that they label as networking. Movement at the company is all about who you know not what you contribute or have experience doing in the past. There are no policies that actually exit because each business unit makes their own. This means when you reach out to HR they just point you right back to your business unit. Promotions are given and not posted for applicants leading to blatant favoritism under the guise of “they networked”

Pros

Benefits including profit sharing and bonuses are great. The breadth of this company provides a great opportunity to try out different career paths or boost your current one.

Cons

In my current role, I am working overtime more often than I'd like with recognition that seems to only go so far until it sizzles out. That may be tied to the size of the company itself, where promotions work in a "trickle down" manner.
