Good work-life balance, but frequent layoffs and low pay - Lead Software Engineer Morningstar Employee Review

Collaborative environment, learning mindset, great work life balance

Not a lot of exceptions for fully remote status

Great benefits (e.g. 6% of salary 401K matching program, 6-week sabbatical after working 4 years). Good opportunities to switch roles within company. Most employees are great to work with.

Slightly lower pay relative to other companies. Management might be on a course of changing strategies across orgs too quickly, resulting in too many things breaking and failed outcomes. Removed 3 days a week in-office policy, which may lead to missed talent acquisition opportunities.
