Pros

Honestly, the only pro is the flexible pto policy.

Cons

Morningstar hooks new grads up with this program where they keep you answering the phone on customer support for years without actually learning skills or rotating you to new roles as promised. Once you are finally able to rotate, no roles will want you because you don’t have any experience doing anything other than answering the phone for clients. And after, you don’t qualify for others companies new grad jobs. I don’t recommend this program to anyone. It is not what they advertise it to be.

The Morningstar Development Program (MDP) has evolved significantly over time and is designed to help early-career professionals build foundational skills, gain hands-on experience, receive mentorship, and grow within a defined career track.

We appreciate you taking the time to share your feedback and wish you'll also share your personal perspective with your manager and the leads of the MDP program.
