Pros
Good Work life balance
Relaxed EnvironmentCons
-Not diverse at all. All senior management is American. Company is very Boston centric and people come from the same schools in Boston. Company has a long way to go before reaching the diversity levels we see at American firms. Diversity does not mean hiring few foreigners to fix your IT issues. Diversity means promoting the best members (regardless of their nationality) and give them the opportunity to make an impact
-Not inclusive at all (people keep stuff for themselves).
- Arrogant culture. Employees are massively under valued
-Flat structure. People work for a pay check
-No discipline. People cut their nails in the office
-Most traders are average yet they do not know the limits of their knowledge
-Company is not techie enough to survive in the long termAdvice to Management
Open up to the world.

Doesn't RecommendNegative OutlookNo opinion of CEOI worked at Fidelity Investments full-time (More than 5 years)
Pros
Renumeration / lifestyle, nice offices, free lunch on Friday
Cons
Pretty much everything else; extremely bureaucratic and political. Very odd flat structure with spikes of seniority which leads to very limited possibility to progress. Basically - you sell your soul and your talents to sit there quietly for a pay cheque.
Advice to Management
Open up to change; unfortunately change has to come from owner; fresh change to management

The non managerial staff, the people actually DOING the work!
Cons
The managerial staff, the delegators, the 'turn a blind eyers'
Advice to Management
Treat your staff like people, like you would want to be treated yourself! I am very sure you would not allow one of your family members to be treated the way I have been treated at this company.
