Great potential ruined by toxic politics and poor HR support - Principal Software Engineer Fidelity Investments Employee Review

Pros

Good benefits but the toxic politics by higher management taken everything away

Cons

• Toxic political culture within the Asset Management division. • Even high-performing employees are subject to unfair treatment and poor reviews due to internal power dynamics. • Concerns escalated to HR and senior leadership were completely dismissed — both acted more like enablers than problem solvers. • HR is ineffective and not employee-focused; they protect toxic leadership rather than support fairness. • Wouldn’t recommend Asset management to any prospect employees .

Pros

Benefits and people are great. Internal mobility opportunities are amazing.

Cons

Hybrid, but strict schedule. The "F" in Fidelity stands for flexibility. Lower pay grade, but great job security in this role.

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.
