Vantaggi

It seems like there is so much room for improvement. Things you could contribute to improving using your knowledge and expertise. The sad part is, that you realize too late; it is this way because no one wants anything improved and trying to make improvements will only bring you pain. There's a guy who wrote a great review comparing this company to North Korea - you should read that too, since it's a very good primer on what life is like at this hole. Discount these negative reviews at your own peril.

Svantaggi

Somehow, this place evolved into a cesspool of moral corruption. If you thought big banks were evil, try a non-profit financial institution which 'believes' it's doing the work for 'the greater good'. The mental abuse perpetrated by all levels of management is criminal in nature and someday a lawsuit will be filed. If you could stomach the abuse, apply for a job and join in a class action lawsuit that might allow you to retire early. Although I'm not sure that long term exposure to the toxicity of this place could be compensated and the damage to your well being is a steep price to pay. I left after 12 months and that was 11 months too long. I felt like I escaped, leaving others behind to perish in the gulag that is TIAA.

Great work life balance, good benefits, decent pay, ease of running your own practice as an “advisor”, and healthy work environment

Svantaggi

Management styles can vary and affect your experience, upper management doesn’t seem to be well equipped to ensure the organization’s success but it is resilient nonetheless.

Vantaggi

Work-life balance & nothing else.

Svantaggi

Don’t make the same mistake I made…there’s a reason why this company’s job listings barely get any traction or applicants, even in the NY markets. Operations is a joke, and has been subpar for 10+ years. The lack of efficiency across all divisions is scary. The VSP (voluntary separation severance packages) that happened in 2021-2022 made things even worse. Because so many employees took the VSP, most roles were either backfilled with non-qualified or inexperienced people or not filled at all…like ever. Especially in Wealth Management leadership roles. This created a micromanagement culture that gets in the way of productivity & slows down money movement. Opening & funding accounts almost always takes 1-2 months here where at JP Morgan & other firms it takes less than 3-4 days. Back office & services associates constantly make mistakes, which impact the client experience and constantly jeopardizes your reputation. Turnover is scary high in operational & support roles, it is very typically for 1 or a very few operational associates to handle requests for an entire region. Constant turnover in the portfolio manager roles & advisor roles are directly related to all of the above. The company’s growth has been stagnant for years. Now that Trump defunded the education department, universities are laying people off because of lack of government funding…which will affect the company’s bottom line faster than they expect. You’ll strangely get the feeling that no one here ever knows what they’re truly doing.
