Pros

Morningstar has a great mission. Joe Mansueto is an icon.

Cons

They don't mind screwing people over on pay. If you do not work in Chicago, you have to deal with local HR. Local HR is the deal breaker. If you do not work in Chicago, it is like you do not work at Morningstar.

Pros

Great benefits (e.g. 6% of salary 401K matching program, 6-week sabbatical after working 4 years). Good opportunities to switch roles within company. Most employees are great to work with.

Cons

Slightly lower pay relative to other companies. Management might be on a course of changing strategies across orgs too quickly, resulting in too many things breaking and failed outcomes. Removed 3 days a week in-office policy, which may lead to missed talent acquisition opportunities.
