Company policies are good. E.g. You get 90 days paid sick leave per year. Leave encashment is on total salary and not just base salary.
Dislikes
1. No job security. They may ask you to resign at any point of time irrespective of your performance.
2. Most of the time the efforts don’t get recognised by the management.
3. Most of the decisions related to promotion or appraisal are taken by US counterparts who may not have a detailed insight of the individual’s contribution.
(This is my personal experience during my tenure with the company (2016-2019) and it might be different for different team/department)....Read More

I like the work culture of the company. The team i was part of, it was a stable environment so there was a stagnant growth.
Dislikes
Personal learning and growth are very hard to achieve here, as they don’t sponsor any certification.
The product that you would be working might feel boring because of its uninteresting nature. Also some teams in India are too overloaded with business deliveries, you might not get chance to learn new things.

Had an amazing time at Morgan Stanley..Had some issues with the manager but overall a fantastic firm to work with. If you get a good manager and team, just go for MS. Absolutely wonderful benefits and perks. You'll love it

- Work life balance can be good depending on the team
- Good opportunities to explore and try different technologies
- People are generally helpful and collaborative, and being so is encouraged by the management
Dislikes
- Salaries does not follow a band, people can be working at same designations but with salary disparity by more than 50%
- Promotions often happen for contribution to adhoc tasks and not on contribution to deliverables
- Hiring needs to be done on a need basis, over hiring and then laying off has been frequent in the last year

Team environment is good. Perks you get are good. Hybrid working so can manage your personal/ professional time accordingly.
Dislikes
Job Security zero. They can ask you to leave any day, just one call you get that your position got impacted and boom you are out. No system access will be available right after the call.
No good projects, Managers will show that they care for you, and they are with you. But nope they are not helpful at all. Even if you have concernsand you discussed these concerns with you managers, there is no use of it.
You will get appraisal only when you join the organization and later they will kick you out with no intimation and no reason. Only bonus is what you can expect which is one time thing....Read More

Workload is fine, office cab. Another company screwed by Micromanagers
Dislikes
A lot of politics, favourism, poor promotion, they can eat your variable pay completely.
Some managers who are old in organisation control everyone to get things done as per them
Threat, abusive language by manager towards consultants especially.
No clear picture about management, during appraisal you'll find new stakeholders which u had to satisfy
