Pros

Use to be a great place to work. Use to be surrounded by great people. Use to be treated fairly and with respect. I was smart enough to bail out last year.

Cons

SNL taking over the entire corporation after being acquired in a horrific deal in which S&P overpaid for the mom and pop shop over two years ago has killed what once was a great company. Their complete disregard for anybody and anything that doesn't live and breathe in the hotbed of the financial world Charlottesville VA is disgusting. They have successfully hijacked every facet of the entire S&P landscape. Chinn having made Doug Peterson his puppet. Five different Corp CIO's in the last five years. One failed product after another. Another few hundred layoffs now in progress, thankfully and miraculously all in VA have been spared. When one outsourcing deal fails try another and even cheaper alternative. The true definition of insanity. It's a sad time to see this clown show playout.

Pros

Similar to a government job, the hours are 9 to 5.30/6pm. Everything is done by committee, so there is no accountability. A good place to hide since its easy to coast -- and many do -- without a clue about technical analysis or knowledge about an industry or company.

Cons

All the experienced, smart and knowledgeable analysts have left the firm. Left are the ones who are inexperienced or haven't yet found opportunities elsewhere, although many are looking. Management is beyond atrocious -- almost comical. Bereft of talent, this firm could take a further hit to their reputation. A word of caution, there is very little upside in this organization. The longer you stay the less marketable you become and the less serious firms in the capital markets take you.

Pros

None since the merger. What used to be a wonderful place to work is now a complete nightmare

Cons

Everything. Senior Management are completely incompetent and seem hellbent on running all experienced and knowledgeable people out of the company and burning the whole thing to the ground. The teams are critically understaffed, underpaid, and overworked. Yes men (Senior Management) constantly put us in bad situations by agreeing to processes that we can’t even come close to completing due to the staffing issues and constantly saying yes to clients, Sales, etc. with no plan, no hiring for the extra work, because they don’t understand what they are signing us up for, and then we have to deal with the consequences of their complete and utter idiocy. The culture, which used to be the best part of working at IHS Markit, has become completely toxic. WSO, which used to be best in class, is now a complete joke and I will be absolutely shocked if WSO is still in business in 5 years unless they get rid of the current leadership given that they have run every single valuable employee out of this place and now clients are starting to jump ship too.
