It looks like an office but it is actually a factory. - Fund Accountant State Street Employee Review

Fund accountant job doesn't involve any financial knowledge at all. You just follow the written procedure each and every day. You just have to clik in Excel as quickly as possible. The funniest and most stupid part of the job is the so called "pricing" You have to print a few dozen pages and check if the numbers are the same on each of the pages. You make a tick to each number on a page. The job is very boring, mundane and repetitive. Each and every day you are doing the same thing. The only positive side of this State Street factory is that people who would have to otherwise work in a factory can instead work in an 'office factory'. It differs from a real factory in things such as you don't have to carry heavy objects. Instead, you just push light papers mindlessly. If you have any talent whatsover, stay as far from State Street as possible.
