Opinions on SSGA?

I’m currently looking to break into LO AM from SS ER and am in the middle of interviewing with State Street Global Advisors (SSGA) for an Equity Analyst role on their Fundamental Equities team. 

I wanted to get some opinions on how they compare with other large institutional asset managers (BlackRock/Fidelity) and places like Capital, Wellington, T.Rowe etc. in terms of culture, reputation, comp, and career progression/prospects/potential exit ops (I know turnover in these seats is low but assume main ones would be to other LO AM and maybe LO or L/S HF?)

I’ve searched the forum for topics/comments mentioning SSGA and read what I’ve found but most of it is from a few years ago at least so would appreciate any more up to date input people may have.
