Morgan Stanley reviews

Unrealistic benchmarks, especially for younger advisors who are fresh out of college. They expect you to bring in about $500k/month, which seems extremely difficult to do without luck and/or a prior network full of willing, affluent investors.

Many times you will have to take calls with US after 7pm. Not much importance is given to technology, people are not very technically strong. At VP level people stop coding, its only about meetings, calls and emails. Not enough attention is given to the quality of code that you write. Only a few good teams have reviews for pull requests. Cumbersome processes for literally all technical work(be a deployment, or getting a plugin for your ide). So many technologies are Morganized. People are reluctant to try new/different technologies in most of the teams. Networking with people is all that matters. The better emails you write, the professional you are considered. Higher management talks about agile most of the time in technology meetings, ask him 5 practices of agile. Having JIRAs is all about agile. Create a JIRA dashboard and call yourself an agile team. Bangalore office in RMZ: Its hard to get out of the IT park during peak hours, narrow rods, completely jammed. Bikes/walk might solve the issue. Auto rickshaws will cost your CTC. You can see Adarsh Palm flats from most of the floors, console yourselves you cannot buy them. Cafeteria is overcrowded during afternoons, not enough tables. The mini meal and veg combo make you high. This is all from my 'perspective' being from a TIER-1 college. But definitely not a bad start for your career.
