      Pros

      Some very intelligent and smart people on the floor, equally smart in politics. Good base compensation, leaves but less growth opportunities Good work environment and facilities.

      Cons

      real estate service team has very unreliable and outdated functions of data collection, loading and checks, systems are unreliable/hangs many times, everything is in Excel and so much scope of errors working hours(overnight) are serious concern very mediocre senior associates with no skill set and expertise to lead too much pressure and production load on analyst which mainly goes unnoticed and unrewarded

      Empowering our content experts and clients with the most up to date tools and technologies is at the core of MSCI’s operational excellence and the reason why a significant and strategic investment is being made to overhaul the entire data operations for our Real Estate line of products. The transformation of MSCI Real Estate is well underway and the differences are now being felt by our clients and colleagues and our team’s engagement levels are also improving significantly year on year. Ahead of this new tool set being available, the talent of our people and their commitment to their clients has resulted in a significant increase of the overall quality of our data services. As is the on-going practice across MSCI, our teams are rewarded every year for their contribution and hard work and are encouraged to have open dialogues with their managers and the leadership of their functions or their location’s HR partners should they need help.
