Pros

Benefits are nice. Used to have flexibility.

Cons

Massive layoffs. No communication with the ranks. Morale at all time low. No longer living the TIAA values. Losing a lot of great talent and experience. Doesn't act in client's best interest. Will push managed products and annuities that drive advisors' bonuses. The advisor will then leave within a year because they can't keep up with the sales goals. Clients will have been pressured to move all their assets to TIAA to soon find out they've been abandoned.

Pros

Great work life balance, good benefits, decent pay, ease of running your own practice as an “advisor”, and healthy work environment

Cons

Management styles can vary and affect your experience, upper management doesn’t seem to be well equipped to ensure the organization’s success but it is resilient nonetheless.
