...ou like the work and have a good team leader, you will be happy and comfortable. Compensation is good and they do acknowledge your hard work. Hours are kind of flexible. They take things slow and steady and give you a lot of time to learn and improve.

Dislikes

No transport.

Biannual hike is there and they offer good salary packages at the time of joining and company transportation (not free of cost but at justified cost)

Dislikes

Here as you spend sometime you will start worryingbabout your future because of the following reasons. 1) very less learning opportunities 2) no training no mentoring 3) autonomous work 4) non friendly management 5) worst HR support 6) the most terrible thing, they wont give it a second thought to terminate any employee. No role of HR except for communicating your termination.

Likes

Zero Indian culture. Everyone is polite and respect your personal space. No botheration during leaves. Most people are honest, reasonable and responsible. Every person is willing to teach you. Office politics is minimal. Brand name will leave people shaking in their boots (if they know about big 3 rating agencies).

Dislikes

Increments are meager and promotions are slow.

This is the best company that I have worked so far. I was in the company profiling team and reported to Apurva Vyas and Asif Ahmed. Both are gems. They are not just supportive, but also push you to grow. The team is lead by Mohit Kumar, who is extremely friendly and open. He has his expectations and they are quite justified. And the entire department is lead by Sumit Vats. He is the guy whom I respect with all my heart and soul. A highly knowledgeable, humble and a good human being. He expectations are very high and at his level that is what is needed the most. Overall, at least in the team I worked for, was vibrant, fun-loving yet serious at work.

Dislikes

Probably Moody's should consider some upskilling programs for its employees.
