Pros

Very talented workforce working shoulder to shoulder to service the most talented clientele. Also a very collegial environment and very humane people.

Cons

It is almost inevitable to suffer from the growing pains of getting larger by acquiring other firms. The mixture of company cultures is always a challenge.

Pros

MSCI consists of young and talented employees. This helps in bringing new ideas and values into the firm and thereby enables the firm to forge ahead.

Cons

MSCI needs to work on making the salaries more competitive than the current level. Sometimes, it appears as though the top management is more reactive than proactive in its approach to dealing with issues.

Pros

Good salary, decent benefits, smart people. Many people at the lower levels of the organization want to do the right thing for the business and its customers. Their best efforts are good intentions often fail due to lack of senior management support and resources.

Cons

Too many too mention. Start with poor senior leadership and add a highly political, paranoid, secretive and distrustful culture where backstabbing and little respect for the individual is standard operating procedure. Then throw in a complete lack of resources and the need to work 24/7 in order to try and accomplish the simplest task with co-workers and vendors in emerging (i.e. cheaper) markets, and you have a totally dysfunctional and toxic environment that smart, committed and talented professionals will want to avoid.
