      Great Culture, Laid-Back Environment

      Pros

      Casual atmosphere (dress code is casual), so I wear jeans/shorts to work. People are very intelligent, nice and willing to help out. Great understanding of work-life balance.

      Cons

      Not really any, but I guess it can be a bit too slow paced at times. Besides that I have no complaints and enjoy working at Morningstar

      Pros

      Excellent benefits. Liberal time-off policy (although not consistently applied across departments), including 6-week paid sabbatical every four years. New stylish, ultra-modern office in convenient location in Loop. Casual dress code and casual work environment. Many good people to work with, but a few bad apples that can make life difficult too.

      Cons

      Compensation for some positions is far below industry standards. Bonus structure is unclear and can fluctuate dramatically. Pay raises happen seldomly - if you want to work here, be sure you negotiate the salary you're going to want for the next decade, because you'll probably still be making that same salary. Career advancement path lacks direction - it depends more on who you know than what you know. Some middle- and upper-level managers have very little management training or experience, and as a result, their departments suffer. Some poor managers can make going to work everyday a nightmare - as has been my case.

      Growing (too?) Fast

      Pros

      The company has a generous and friendly culture. There is a real "investor comes first" attitude which underlies the whole philosophy of the business - it's not lip service, per some sell side places.

      Cons

      It shows all the signs of a company which is growing too fast. Lots of areas of the business just don't know how to interface with others. Compensation is not great.
