Pros

Work life balance, decent pay, the people are nice to work with, team oriented environment the company as a whole respected from outside financial industry,

Cons

Layoffs, bad technology, don’t want spend money on improvements to reduce errors. Unlike Wall Street firm where management more involved in day to day like trading, merger deals, etc at S&P less managers do. Mostly sit around in meeting and if not seemed bored nothing to do. Never seen managers desks so clean like not doing anything.

Advice to Management

Decisions seem to be not about making product better but how to just do it cheaper. Instead of working at firm that’s decades old feels like startup mentality pinching pennies when have huge profit margins so can make improvements if wanted
