Pros

Free coffee. Free online training. Some really great people work at TIAA.

Cons

The executive leadership seems lost and a bit corrupt. They are moving most of IT to India and are firing or forcing out people in the US. You can put a name on it, but the CIO will only entertain input from those in India. This was a company of vision and integrity. Unfortunately, as many companies do, we are going through a period of the executive team raiding the company coffers. One can only hope they will take what they want quickly and allow us to repair after they get what they want and leave.

Pros

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

Cons

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.

Pros

Compensation is great for advisors once they are promoted to VP. Everyone else has to wait a year and hope for a good rating that's more of a game than merit based

Cons

Woke culture, reverse discrimination, very frustrating to do business with as a client
