Pros

None that I could discern from the chaotic mess that is TIAA's marketing department.

Cons

I recently applied for a marketing role at TIAA and was sorely disappointed. The company seems to be in disarray, with no clear direction or leadership. Mickey, the CMO, appears completely out of touch and is a hindrance rather than a help. Her direct reports are a joke; they seem to spend more time avoiding work than actually doing any. It's a mystery how this team functions, as no one seems to understand basic marketing principles. Save yourself the trouble and look elsewhere if you value competence and sanity in your workplace.

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.
