Pros

job growth possibilities if you live in mumbai or manila; if based in dev market will gain exposure to other cultures when you train your eventual replacement

Cons

new ideas are stifled or stolen by managers. no risk is worth taking in case it goes wrong, no one wants to be holding the bag. firm is focused on cutting costs, paying the c-suite, and milking revenue from clients. promotions are part random part based on kissing up to clueless management

Pros

Collaborative, flexible working hours, good package, intelligent people, nice offices, global. When I joined, my mindset was to retire at MSCI. That's how good I perceived the Firm to be. For majority of my stay, I was happy and contented. With all the changes and what's happening currently, my opinion of the Firm has dramatically changed.

Cons

Change and re-organization has not been good for MSCI. A lot of top management new hires in the past year. Some people who everybody thought should be promoted, did not get promoted for various reasons -- politics, budget, opinions of a few influential people over-rode what the majority supported. I have also been hearing great people being let go due to redundancy. Not good. Says a lot about how MSCI is discrediting these people's past contributions to the Firm and only thinks about saving money.
