Good pay and benefits for what the job is but you’re a robot - Financial Customer Associate II Fidelity Investments Employee Review

Pros

- Pay was good for what it was; received pay increase within 3-4 months to compete with other financial institutions. - Benefits and retirement plan (medical, dental, vision, 401k, stock program) - 16 week paid training program (8:30am-5:00pm) - some of the people you meet and community events etc - good resume builder if you need to help build it - diversity

Cons

- Once you are out of the training program you are 12pm-8pm ET. This seems okay at first and if you’re a night owl, but it wears on you. You can advance ur way to a better time slot but if you start a new role that’s the same sort of field, you go back to 12-8pm and have to work your way back up. - Stats; you have to meet call criteria which some is understandable but then you have situations that they don’t train you on and your stuck ruining your stats. - You feel like a robot and are really just a number. Saying the same things over and over to every customer can get tiring especially some of them are super rude and impatient. - a good manager and a bad one here affects ur motivation to do the same exact thing over and over again - hourly salary; they tell you and send you an offer that it’s a salary position but are paid by the hour

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.
