Business Outlook

Pros

RiskMetrics was a fun place to work. Open collaboration between groups from the CEO to Fianance to Managers to Sales, etc. Everyone has a say and managers listen.

Cons

The dynamics are different in each office, which is expected, however management seemed to want a one size fits all approach. In some respects this is difficult, as different offices have different cultures. One size does not fit all. The upper management says they're open and transparent but many decisions have come as a surprise. RiskMetrics has also just been acquired by MSCI.
