      Boring, pays well - Python Developer Morgan Stanley Employee Review

      Pros

      1. Good pay. 2. Decent amount of documentation on intranet. 3. Colleagues are nice and helpful, from my experience.

      Cons

      Boring, meaningless work that never gets done. The culture values meeting attendance and goal setting more than actually creating and developing real solutions. A lot of this can also be attributed to: 1. The regulatory nature of the finance industry 2. The lack of pushback from lower management to upper management (i.e. politics/lack of control/lack of cohesion) 3 . The terrible build/deployment system that is based off of jenkins. Its terrible and clunky and takes a million years just to get a basic software project started.

      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!
