Stay. Away. - Fund Accountant State Street Employee Review

Forget the concept of ever having a team that’s staffed. Everything is “lean” aka as cheap as possible; if it can maybe be done in China or India, it’s going to be. American labor is too expensive. Not only that, so is investing in technology. Fund admin is the only profitable part of the business at the moment and yet the entire company has a hiring freeze and the tech looks straight out of the 80s. I’ve worked 60+ hours a week for the past 3 months and yet they preach work/life balance. Upper management does nothing but spew corporate bs line “synergies” and “hubs” and “plans.”
