Don't expect to think for yourself in the 401k department - 401k Specialist Fidelity Investments Employee Review

Pros

I like the benefits... the 401k matching and fitness money is great.

Cons

You get knocked off on call scores for insane reasons. They expect you to follow a script and be able to click through a window that tells you how to do your job as well as help the customer at the same time. Transactions that I know like the back of my hand take two or three times as long because I have to read through the "call flows" and sound like a complete idiot to the customer. I have to read through them to make sure I don't miss some inane bit of information that I have to tell the customer that really does not have anything to do with the transaction taking place. I have seen employees who have been with the company for a long time let go or on last warning because they know the job so well using this tool slows them down.

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.
