Pros

Excellent facilities and infrastructure (may not last long due to recession). Highly encourages innovation and employee development even though scope is minimal due to restricted financial domain. Competitive pay structures (may not last long due to recession). Management ensures proper communication to all employees in major decisions.

Cons

Certain sections' job responsibilities are highly stress-prone - management sometimes take decisions based on budget planning rather than people development. Most of upper level leadership is not technology aware, which makes them poor project planners, which in turn affects people development. HR is too busy managing technical workforce coming in and going out, hence cannot do much to solve the management issues.

Pros

Large company with may different opportunities. Fidelity has its hand in so many areas of business that you could do pretty much anything.

Cons

There is no clear actionable vision from senior management. Many outsiders have come into very senior level positions and haven't lasted too long. There have also been some very high profile departures from the firm. This has caused a general sense of uncertainty about the vision and direction the company is heading towards in the future.

Pros

They take care of the employees. Great training. Laid back environment at branches. There is a lot of training. I traveled to california and texas to get the right training i needed for my job. It was far better than just having someone teach me in the branch.

Cons

They are quick to let employees go. There are a lot of people willing to work for less so they have a revolving door of employees. The branches push contests quite frequently. You may be urged to sell something in order to meet some sort of goal, even though it might not be right for the customer.
