Due to I'm not from either financial or IT background in university, the learning curve was a little steep, however my colleagues are very helpful to provide support. My typical day starts with a scrum meeting and I head on to do my project(s), sometimes I get pulled to help with support related issues, then after market close I would deploy my changes to the production environment, if I have a change ready and approved.
The working environment is nice since people welcome your questions but work hours may not be ideal. It depends on which department you get into as some department tends to have late hours.
good insurance coverage, stressful work, work-life balance, yoga class at lunch time
A good company but limited advancement opportunity. The company is too big as such it is very difficult for senior management from HQ to know the unfair practices in other region
Pros
Good Company culture
Cons
Unfair practice and management biased, hard working does not guarantee promotion
Reasonable hours with nice people. Lot of team bonding events to get to know each other inside the department. Promotion wise - the headcount struggle is real.
While company has good benefits, the culture of the company has eroded and people are no longer recognized for their accomplishments. Instead the "optics" of a position are what drives recognition.
Pros
Vacation
Cons
No work life balance
Morgan Stanley is a great place to work. It is energetic and a fulfilling place of employment. You get the opportunity to learn about different cultures, backgrounds and to speak with people all around the world.
A great professional institution with strong culture. The internship program was very well-designed for students to experience and learn routines at an ibank
People are smart, and prefer working long hours. Everyone is focusing on delivery results. Managers give me insights and are fair. I love working there.
You work with the smartest people. Response speed is fast and efficient. Hardest part of the job is advancement and salary increment. People are generally nice.
Morgan Stanley is too well-known for the people in the world. Everything is well-versed with system and is highly automated. However, this makes operations and solutions less flexible.

It is a professional work place with a supportive team. I worked as a data migration contractor regarding ISDA and the team has provided all the support and necessary exposure to facilitate my job.
Morgan Stanley is a nice place for financial professions to work. Everyone there in the sales and trading team is smart and hardworking. The culture is less aggressive than Goldman but maintains a high level of energy. Competitive compensation package with good career advancement. The work life balance may not be as ideal though.
