Very conservative and respected, reputable firm can improve in compensation department as an I-Management leader.

Financial services representative

Business Outlook

Pros

Reputable firm. Leader in the MF industry. Very conservative business platform and compliance/HR department that constantly modifies policies and procedures in order to avoid heavy risks and excessive business expenses. The company has very driven and intelligent individuals that strongly believe in a team oriented work environment. The branch work environment is much different than the phone sites where customer service is provided to branch representatives and clients. Business processes are heavily outsourced by department functions and organized according to a customer service phone tree. Overall, the only improvement to be made is in the compensation area and the technical development available to the representatives working at the branches.

Cons

Business platform is too large and departments are outsourced; created as phone sites versus subject matter support staff to advisors. Financial advisors are too reliant on software and not enough technical (financial) development is promoted by the company in certain areas.

Bring Your ' A ' Game to Fidelity and Your Opportunities are Endless!

Client manager

Business Outlook

Pros

The collegial atmosphere allows employees at Fidelity to work together towards solutions by bringing diverse knowledge through cross-business teams. Instead of working in Silos we communicate with business partners having experience in multiple industries. This allows quicker responses to client needs as well as the most efficient process to bring the most relevant new products to market within budget and original timeframe. The benefits packages include health insurance, life insurance, short and long term disability, corporate perks, share ownership in a private company, and 401k. Management is very flexible when time is needed for personal needs. The properties are taken care of and kept current and the food at Sebastians(internally owned caterer) isn't half bad!

Cons

It can be tough to see people promoted or hired for choice jobs because of who they know or where they went to school. This problem though seems to be endemic to the entire business world. You have to manage your time appropriately to allow you to keep up with your current tasks as well as learning more skills and making the right connections to be properly positioned to advance your career. If you are not a Type A personality you can get stuck in a role performing the same tasks over and over without much growth potential. You have to take initiative and make it known that you want to move ahead. Some management will not support your career goals as it causes them to have to backfill which can be a challenge.
