Pros

Will sponsor for licenses and pay for CFA society dues. Pay is pretty decent. The culture in the Denver office was extremely way too layed back. They do give you a lot of flex time. Have a decent facility with a gym. They took care of all my annual dues for my professional licenses, 7, 63, 24, CFA; which can become pretty expensive. Used to also have very good holiday parties until this past year. Small group in Denver and it was a pretty close knit group of professionals that for the most part got along very well. Seemed to be very supportive of your family.

Cons

far to many meetings; every decision from strategy down to where to go to lunch is decided by having a meeting to discuss. Then you usually have a post meeting to discuss the effectiveness of the prevous meeting. Too much politics going on in the group. Found a few of the executives to not be very knowledgable and/or caring. They seemed to disappear for long perionds of time. As I said before, everything seemed to run off of meetings. Way too many meetings and they'd bring into the meetings that weren't even relevant. Not very honest and upfront when it came to bonus expectations and or salary reveiws.

Pros

Some of the best reason to work for ING Investment Management of Americas are the people. The Management team; very approachable and really care about what the employees' think. In this tough economic times, it is important for management to pay attention to morale. ING is a company that cares about employee morale and create opportunities for employees' to get involved in community service.

Cons

One of the downsides of working at ING Investment Management is the lack of communication with other ING departments.

Pros

ING offers a very competitive salary and benefit package to mid-level managers and higher. Departments are often given autonomy to guide their business, within budget considerations. My own hours are flexible to support a good work/life balance. Performance is based on results, so people who accept responsibility for thier work, and fulfill their requirements, are rewarded. Senior management has a strong vision for the global presence of ING.

Cons

The autonomy allowed creates a disfunctional alignment between business groups and internal departments. There are few requirements in place to organize standard internal processes. However, the IT structure, which is supported by a 3rd party vendor, is highly regimented and makes changes and communications with IT providers difficult. Rounds of layoffs are being driven by the current financial declines - true of all financial service organizations. While Senior Mgmt. has strong vision, that vision is not often followed through in operations.
