Fidelity Investments

My team was pretty open-minded and technically strong.

Your ideas and opinions are valued.

They were open to suggestions for new technologies or coding practices.

Conducted software engineering meetings, coding "mojos," and similar activities for self-improvement.

Pretty good work and social life balance.

The salary is not that great for full-time employees compared to contractors.

Fidelity is pretty diverse in nature, so the team and location play a major factor in how technically rich it is. I have seen some teams use outdated technologies.

Try to work on the ratio of full-time employees to contractors in favor of full-time employees.

Go for more career fairs and invest in the recruitment process, rather than just relying on recruiters and the contractor firm, Veritude.
