Morgan Stanley Technical Lead salaries in India (Updated 2025)

Likes

I was lucky enough to work on 2 development from scratch products at Morgan. This gave me a tremendous learning curve. Along with it, I worked with some of the most hardworking, smart, intelligent people. Although, some people would complain of the lack of work-life balance, I felt the work to be so intriguing that I never had a problem working hard and/or over the weekends.

Dislikes

The salary hikes/bonus were not as good as they were earlier, but that was primarily due to a tough business environment and it's impact on the company's profit.

1.Great to join if you are early in your career. 2. Salary & Increments are fine.

Dislikes

They follow a very rigid hierarchy structure. Seniors make opinions based on the views from their 1 downs. You can have all the valid points in the world but no one will take your opinion if you are a junior. 2. Too much importance is given if something is said by an onshore personal. Valid points are not a consideration then.

Yhey give you good package if you are onroll, but if you are on contract then don't expect much.

Dislikes

If you are in probation, the HR does not listen to your side if your probation is extended. In my case & colleague, our probation was extended from 3 months to 6 months, after that instead of confirming probation they gave us reason that performance is not satisfactory even working hard & extending shifts. We were asked yo leave the firm, & HR does not have any role in it. They do not take part in it, once decision is made by manager. They don't put you in any other process, but simply ask to leave. Me & my colleague we both joined with a time difference of 2 weeks & both of us were not confirmed & asked to leave. Work culture is not good. Feedback & training was not give properly. Just a organisation for its name but policy are worst.

In accounting, where I work, there has never been a day when there was no learning. Everyone is quite helpful with your curious questions. Professional environment mostly. People are composed and quite civil no matter what the situation (Mostly).

Dislikes

...an soon become a habit if you don't fight it. There is no overtime paid as well. Lastly, Year-end compensation is not satisfactory.

Likes

Good Company to work in, good starting compensation offered and nice organization culture. Rest of the benefits and experience depends on the project you are a part of. Over-all a good organization to switch into and good people to work with.

Dislikes

...isappointed if you have worked with advanced tech in your previous organization. Starting Compensation offered is one of the best as per standards, but yearly hike are not at par.
