Do not work, old technology, even older company policies - Associate Software Engineer Morgan Stanley Employee Review

Pros

Work here if you do not want to grow as a Software Engineer, only handful of teams (like maybe five) get it right.

Cons

You get fired for going in ten minutes late, having personal boundaries or a life, or even dressing up in business casual. Archiac work from home policies, poor tech stack, either micro managed or have to just show you are at work. The repo T3 team is the worst. I think they seek desperate people who need visa or contractors and have a lasso on them using that. Pay is below average too. If you are talented you will find better places.

Pros

Very good co-workers, Great technology stack. Lot of new technologies and integration with current work.

Cons

They dont even give you a MS cup. They ask you to buy it for 5$. So cheap! Management big on "Giving back", Immediate managers do not like it and are not supportive. Lay off employees twice a year to show profits. Only worried about shareholders and clients. Don't know the criteria for lay-off. So, you are always worried if it is your turn. They boast about mental health and wellness. No good, when they layoff employees like this. HR = Horrible Resources. When you are laid off, they shoo you away as if you are a fly. You feel miserable. They themselves say - "We are better than Facebook or Oracle. We dont fire you at 6 AM over email." Gosh! What a comparison!
