Fidelity Investments

Good employee investment plan (I've heard it's changed since though).

Excellent intranet communications, including online training and other programs.

Mature organization: policies and procedures are clear and well-formed.

Opportunities for reward and bonus are consistent.

Strong, progressive corporate culture.

Politics over substance in some areas, with occasionally over-managed resources. The review process seems more subjective than objective. From my perspective, Fidelity can be a great place to work if you get in the right group. Unfortunately, I joined a group that had a high turnover rate that began before I joined and continued after I left.

Invest more strongly in strategic projects that contribute to the vision of the company. All other projects do not need to be staffed or scheduled at the same rate, especially where the opportunity cost far exceeds their value.
