Thread regarding Fidelity Investments layoffs

Perks

Do you all get any perks? We're a core team in Brokerage, responsible for one of Abby's three goals flashing on the TV these days. Yet, no team lunches whatsoever. After our persistent complaints, our scrum master (great guy!) organized a Pizza team lunch, out of his own pocket later we learned!

Meanwhile, other perks such as AWS ReInvent tickets, this and that training camps... the leaders are kept among themselves.

Wondering is it the norm or where I am su-ks?

How about a participation trophy? Will that make you happy? Will it allow you to sleep at night? No pizza…look at the positive side…you are not driving up Fidelity’s health costs.

This post has to be one of the funniest on here. Crying because they didn’t get pizza or some recognition. Be thankful you have a job with what was a great company!

None whatsoever except some holiday goodies from vendors and a couple happy hours in the office.

I got a few nice jackets. Of course they have Fidelity branded on them.

Welcome to fidelity, you have to su-k up to your SVP if you can get anything, people over 50's SVP's who run this place think you should be thankful for the job. However, if you think otherwise, run away from this place, because nobody below 40's works in this place because of SVP's you are running this place to the ground
