Pros

Overall the firm is ok to work for however see cons for some color on what to watch out for.

Cons

The whole ratings division was told during a global "town hall" conference call that the entire 2018 bonus pool would be 60% lower than target because management was too optimistic and fell short of some undisclosed financial targets. There was no indication throughout 2018 that anything was wrong so the disclosure in late Feb 2019 (very late to begin with) came as a big shock/disappointment. Individual bonuses have now been disclosed and will be paid in a week or two.

Pros

Company went through a significant amount of changes from the corporate side while I was there. It was enjoyable to work there because you got access to a lot of information that you don't normally get to see/hear about.

Cons

If you're not part of the original S&P Global, and came in through acquisition, general employees treat you poorly, like you don't belong. Became a toxic environment to be part of which impacted both professional and personal life. I really wanted to be part of the company, but they made it near impossible to stay. They didn't care if you stay or not, because there are 1000s of others who are willing to take your place.
