Pros
Work-life balance; transferable skills; most co-workers are helpful. The company is a place where you can obtain valuable skills and gain significant insight on various sectors in the financial industry, depending on your group focus.
Cons
Fitch is still bouncing back after the recent recession, with some groups within the company doing better than others. Relatively low compensation for position/title; work can become monotonous; managers can show favoritism; group communication can be very poor at times. Company is a place where one can become "comfortable" very easily, which can be good and bad. For some, Fitch can pay well and provide career development. For others (most), Fitch can pay "okay" or significantly lower than peers and sometimes provide a sense of stagnation. The experience at Fitch is what you make of it. More ambitious and driven workers would ultimately use experience at Fitch as a stepping stone to more challenging, higher-paying job positions later on in their careers.
