Pluspunten

Difficult to find positive points to raise -(does international presence count?)

Minpunten

I spent a horrible year working for Sustainalytics and I would not recommend it as a place to work personally or professionally (low salaries and no work life balance). As a result of unrealistic expectations of the management team (at least within the research department) little projects are driven successfully as employees are overworked and the inflexibility of the organisation. In addition, there is no company culture in or out of the office as a result it is difficult to build working relationships with other colleagues as people do not feel engaged by the company. Moreover, during my first week working for Sustainalytics I received several warnings from colleagues to watch out for so and so...this does provide a good image of the company, created a lot of distrust amongst colleagues and all in all creates a toxic work environment. Turns out the people I was warned about (including my manager) and I had a poor relationship/

Thank you for sharing this feedback. We have been focused on helping our colleagues build the relationships critical to their work and recognize that more than two-thirds of our colleagues were hired during the pandemic. To help strengthen personal and professional relationships while providing an in-office cultural experience, we’ve seen success holding regular collaboration weeks which ensure our newer colleagues can interact and engage with other new joiners as well as more tenured colleagues. We are also committed to helping all colleagues maintain a healthy work life balance and support that through a generous PTO program, sabbatical opportunities, and hybrid working arrangements. We’re also disappointed to hear about your experience with your direct manager because our quarterly pulse surveys shows consistently high ratings Sustainalytics colleagues give their managers and other trust-related indicators. If you do have anything else you would like to share, please reach out to AskHR@morningstar.com.

Pluspunten

Really kind people work here, for the most part everyone I have worked with is smart and I have learned so much from them. There are great benefits: unlimited PTO, 6 week paid sabbatical is earned after 4 years of employment, 6 month maternity leave. Great location of an office. Great work life balance.

Minpunten

Not very competitive pay and it is easy to hit a ceiling in your career development. New HR policies are kind of strange, will not promote you unless you make enough money to be promoted which they designed the system to make it so you cannot go up. HR has also laid people off because they make too much money without considering the consequences of removing senior employees with unique/not stored intelligence vital to the company. They also hired a bunch of remote employees, then implemented a 4 day required in office rule no matter if you live states away from an office, which pushed hundreds of people to quit, not receive their bonus, and not require M* to pay them severance. It didn't use to be this way but the last year or so has been strange.
