Pros

Paid study time to pass exams.

Cons

Fidelity is one of those "we grew too fast for our own good" companies. From 1990 to 2000, the employee base grew exponentially and alot of people who had no business being in any sort of management role found themselves in charge of other people in management. Fidelity now cannot care about their new recruits having bachelor's or master's degrees, because many of the site directors have only high school diplomas to their name. The national director of phone centers is working on a bachelor's degree. There is no reward for education or effort, and for a while the quickest way to get into a manager position was to be female--hardly any other qualification was needed.

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.
