A financial company that likes to think it’s a tech startup - Software Engineer Fidelity Investments Employee Review

Pros

If you are on a work visa or an H1B applicant than this is the place for you! You can enjoy having brand new ping pong tables and crappy food in the mess hall, just do t expect things like a desk to work at when you are in the office or a compensation package that approaches the median for your job role

Cons

Management is getting uppity about people coming into the office because Abby Johnson doesn’t want to admit that the Pandora’s box they opened by forcing us to work remote for 2 years has permanently changed the way people look at software work. They’d rather force us back into our cramped offices to protect their real estate interests than to admit that it’s objectively a worse way to work. This is compounded by the fact that most development teams are spread out over two continents for cost saving measures

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.
