Pros
Morgan Stanley is a great company with an outstanding reputation. The money is good & everyday at work is interesting in different ways. An employee can really learn how the financial world is affected by working here.
Cons
It is very hard to get promoted if you do not have several upper level contacts in New York. Morgan Stanley only likes to recruit at "top schools" and often times the people that we get at the undergrad level start out making large amounts of money when there are superior people that already work here that could be promoted and given an opportunity for more responsibility.
