I truly appreciate the opportunity I had to work at Morgan Stanley. The company has a strong reputation for innovation and excellence in the financial industry. Working there provided me with a unique chance to collaborate with talented professionals and engage in meaningful, impactful work. The environment fostered growth, and I gained invaluable knowledge, especially in the areas of legal compliance and financial services. Morgan Stanley's commitment to integrity and its forward-thinking approach to business made it an inspiring place to develop my skills and contribute to its continued success....Read More

Dislikes

While I gained valuable experience at Morgan Stanley, there were aspects of the work environment that I found challenging. The fast-paced and high-pressure nature of the industry sometimes made it difficult to maintain a healthy work-life balance. Additionally, the hierarchical structure could feel restrictive at times, limiting opportunities for direct communication and collaboration across different levels. While the company’s focus on compliance and legal matters is essential, it sometimes led to a more rigid approach that felt less flexible in certain situations. These challenges made it harder to fully enjoy the work experience despite the valuable skills I developed....Read More

Extreme favoritism, biasness and politics. Managers not discussing career path, regular 1:1s, lacks of KPIs to track performance and judging individuals on the basis of peers' feedback, lack of guidance from the leadership team and poor training mechanism

Policies and facilities

Dislikes

Old senior employees exploiting new employees. HR supports office politics and no workplace ethics. No mandatory job rotation, which is causing people to stay with their loved ones and exploiting new comers. Senior management is playing blind & deaf role.

Office dress culture is relaxed. Hybrid work mode is good to have.

Dislikes

Poor job security and unfair appraisals and promotions. Coddling up to managers is required to get ahead and promoted. Kind of starting to become like TCS management. Tons of middle layer management in India.

1. Hybrid 2. Cafeteria 3. Colleagues

Dislikes

1. Corporate Bullying by some superiors 2. Bad training by trainee 3. Abusive language by trainee 4. Seniors expect quick results from some analysts but not from others(unequal treatment) 5. Seniors egotistically complain to HR that I am attacking them with words although I am asking a doubt.(It is like they don’t know the answer tothe doubt; just turn it towards me) 6. No one was there to guide me to my desk on the starting day. I made calls to all the HRs (who had contacted me for the job) but no one answered. I somehow managed to get a number of a random person sitting in Bangalore who called the concerned person to get me. I had to wait for 1 hour in the lobby. My manager was supposed to escort me to the floor but he was on holiday. 7. The IT team told me that the work setup will be delivered at home before my starting day. But it got delivered 1 month after my starting day. I raised many queries in the meantime. But my other colleagues had got their setup before their start. 8. The HRs did not pick or return my call till my starting day. There was nothing to get my queries resolved. They hardly replied to my mails asking for a callback. 9. The HR asked twice for my credentials for background verification.(And the senior expects me, a fresher, to be perfect at my work at the onset) 10. 3 of the seniors always pressurised me to be perfect because I am a qualified professional but did not pressure other analysts who had same qualifications as me. One of them commented that I don’t look like I am interested in work and always on mobile even I wasn’t. I swear to God, I wasn’t on my mobile for more than 5 mins a day; but my colleagues used to constantly use mobile. Even though I was excited for work, the seniors demotivated me everytime. 11. All of my team colleagues were frustrated at those seniors. Even a colleague(considered fantastic in work) from another team refused the offer to be on my team. 12. They will promote only those people who are dear to them whether or not they are capable....Read More
