      flexibility and benefits in exchange for lower salary

      Equity analyst
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      interesting jobs (especially if you work as an equity or mutual fund analyst) flexibility and lots of time off, such as sabbaticals every 4 years, time off at your discretion with most people taking about 4 weeks off per year; good benefits, especially health insurance, the hours are reasonable, most people get off around 5PM, it's not your typical finance job hours. Also, flexible hierarchy and advancement comes by merit, if you do well then you will be promoted. Also, people hired are pretty decent people, and there are opportunities to go abroad if you want. Morningstar also gives you free bagels

      Cons

      Lower relative salary compared to other finance jobs

      Great benefits, terrible salary

      Project manager
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Benefits and advancement opportunities. You get a lot of responsibility right away at Morningstar, and it is a meritocracy; they will advance less experienced people, if they are truly capable. Also, the 401K and health benefits are amazing, there is a wonderful sabbatical policy (6 weeks paid consecutive vacation every 4 years), there is no vacation policy but you take at least 3 weeks off during the year, AND they pay for 80% of your higher education tuition.

      Cons

      Salaries are quite low compared to other similar companies. Also, they say that titles don't matter here, but they really do. There is a hierarchy, but management pretends as if it doesn't exist, so it takes a while to figure out who is who in the company.

      Good benefits and culture, but boring work and low pay

      Investment analyst
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Great benefits, good work/life balance, flexibility, and flat organization culture

      Cons

      Relatively low pay in comparison to the industry, being pigeon-holed into the same repetitive tasks each month, complacency among other employees, work not very challenging. The sales department think they are the center of the Morningstar universe and the equity analysts feel overburdened.
