Bessemer-Trust

Bessemer Trust is a very family oriented firm. Everyone whom I had the pleasure of working with was always a team player. After working there for 10 years I considered my co-workers like family. Bessemer's unique trading strategies and prestige clients was beyond beneficial to me I have gained an extreme amount of knowledge while working for them over the years. Bessemer's reputation is known for service with excellence and at times it was challenging to maintain an error free desk when the work load was altered, but we always manage to get it  done by working together as a team by checking one another's work which left minimal room for an oversight , as well as lending a co-worker a hand when needed. Doing so we accomplished what needed to be done timely and efficiently.

Great company.  Fantastic benefits.  Work/life balance not so great.  Most of the people are lovely - they stay 20, 30 years.  Management - depends on the department.  Upper management is fantastic.  

People at Bessemer work like dogs, but get paid well too.  There is room for advancement.  

Not a company that gives back to the community much.  More about money, status and ivy league education than the local food bank.  

All in all, if you want to make a good salary, great benefit and work for a solid company, Bessemer is perfect for you.  If your someone that wants to feel that they work for "the greater good", this isn't your place.

More learning through hands-on experience than training due to constant busy environment. Expect to work long hours which are compensated through annual salary, benefits and end of year bonus. That being said, any working weekends are not recompensed without approval. There is rarely any work-life balance although the firm practices. The most enjoyable part of the job is the opportunity to learn new skills, contribute new ideas and processes and to work with a great team who bring an array of experience to the table on group projects.

This is the type of company you go to for either short term experience out of college or to end your career.  The incentives to stay have all but been removed.  The only way to advance in the company is for someone to quit or unfortunately pass.  People who started over 10 years ago won't leave, but anyone who started after that won't get the same benefits so the low wage isn't worth it.

Bessemer Trust is a Wealth Management Firm, they manage wealth for millionaires and billionaires. I had the opportunity to use my current skills, while learning new skills, I learned all about event planning, I was trained by their event planner from the NY office. I was met a lot of people that I probably would not have met otherwise.

I loved Bessemer I was there about 5 years and kept getting promoted they love hard work!! I wasn’t afraid of it I was young single … I left the company to pursue a dream I had to open my own biz and using my vested money I didn’t have to borrow a dime from anyone or have a bank loan !!!! Bessemer trust thank you!!!!!!!!!

Hostile cutthroat culture.  Unprofessional management and a lot of gossip.  Training of new employees is terrible and ineffective. No support from management or HR

It is a very fast pace, professional environment. Every person plays a part in the overall organization's success, no matter how high or low the employee's job title is. Most of the time, you execute many tasks outside of your role.

It's a great atmosphere to be a part of.

Loved everything about the firm, however, if your manager sucks, there’s nothing to be done about it. I would highly encourage the firm to look into providing leadership courses to their managers, especially to those with such high turnover rates. 

Bessemer truly is an amazing company. There are many perks, such as 401k contributions, etc. Every person I've worked with has been extremely friendly.
