Fidelity Investments

Engaged employer

It once was a great place to work. I'd stay away for a while until things shake out one way or the other. - Director of Architecture Fidelity Investments Employee Review

Pros

There are some very fine people who work there, and the environment is professional. Many projects are well funded, and they take a long term approach to projects -- so you usually have what you need to get things done. There is a commitment to integrity. The benefits are quite nice.

Cons

The management seems to have lost focus and is spinning around creating turmoil and fear. There is a lot of internal strife and politics. Groups are set up to compete with each other, and this causes in-fighting. They compete with each other, and loose focus on competing with their external competitors. I think Ned lost control of the company, and it seems to me that the family cares more about their assets than about the company. It's a family biz, and the family comes first.

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.
