Pros

A entrepreneurial atmosphere and generally great people to be around. The wealth of knowledge here is a huge boost for perks at Morningstar. Benefits, including medical, etc., sabbatical, no close monitoring of vacation and / or sick days, graduate degree assistance, the list goes on and on.

Cons

As mentioned, compensation might be on the low side. People starting a year later for the same position get a salary that is higher by 10%? When I found this out, I was quite irritated. Also, some roles might be mundane starting out, but every person needs a starting point in life, so somewhat expected.
