Pros

Great company if you are the share holder or if you are the client.

Cons

If you are a tech person then you will be in the bottom of the food chain. Most of the experienced and talented developers have left and leaving every month. They are also slowly killing the old culture that made me pick this company when I was looking for a job. Some senior upper management officers are biased against women devs.

MSCI is at its root, a Content, Platform and Technology company. In support of this we have a robust and aggressive Technology strategy which has been wholly endorsed by the Executive Committee and the Board and significant investments in key initiatives have been consistently approved and are progressing well. As a company and as a Technology Services function we desire and welcome diversity in all roles and are an equal opportunity employer committed to building a diverse workforce in all respects. It is the policy of the Firm to ensure equal employment opportunity without discrimination or harassment. MSCI also has a zero tolerance policy for discrimination of any kind. Not only do we have strong gender diversity on our Executive Committee and Board, but we also have a strong and active Women’s Leadership Forum with representation globally, which helps all MSCI employees learn and become stronger leaders through various avenues.

Corporate Confusion

Pros

Some really good people working there, trying to corral the mess that needs to be straightened out after most of the original talent got chased off by corporate culture changes. If you're good, you could become a rock star. Beware the dangers that come with that.

Cons

CEO pushing so hard for cost containment that it is hollowing out the company talent pool. Operates like a small company still trying to make it, not a corporate powerhouse that the marketing slicks show.
