Pros

Satisfying mission, good work-life balance, great opportunities for junior people to learn. It is hard to get fired from Fitch.

Cons

Don't benefit from a diverse dialogue, political and clique-y, opportunities for growth and development are stifled. The executive management team is white males in their forties and fifties. Strong women have left the firm because they are not valued.

Pros

Work/life balance is great. Good place to work if you have a family. Most people are great mentors and very helpful. Management is very helpful in giving you the opportunity to grow.

Cons

Salary could be much better. Seen people leave because of that. Also, I've seen people leave because of a few uncooperative personalities. One person who is difficult to work with will make it difficult to stay with the company. Regulatory issues means more reporting and data recording, which means much of the work consists of documentation.
