Morningstar Response
5yThank you for taking the time to share your feedback with us. It sounds like you are disappointed with your experience and I want to take a moment to address some of your concerning feedback and statements around Morningstar’s response to COVID-19 and compensating employees fairly. COVID-19 has created a lot of change over the past year such as moving a global workforce to remote working and constantly adapting to uncertainty in today’s tumultuous political and economic climate. But despite these challenges, Morningstar, along with executive leadership, have been intentional to weather the storm by keeping our people connected through regular updates, providing resources and support, and maintaining our workforce when many other organizations have been forced to make tough decisions. In fact, we’ve seen the highest level of satisfaction across the organization because of our response to COVID-19.
You’re right, Morningstar isn’t like Amazon or Google. We’re different. But that’s what makes us special too. We’ve never been about following trends and what’s popular – we set our own path and look for like-minded and passionate, talented individuals to join us on that journey. Maybe that’s why so many investors look to us.
