Interviewed Jul 2011 (took 2+ months)
The most drawn out interview process I have ever seen, and the most disorganized. Had 3 interviews by telephone and the two of those got rescheduled an hour before the scheduled time. They did not even call me, just sent an e-mail. Luckily I caught it. Then had an on-site visit. For an investment firm that prides itself on unique insights, this is one of the most conservative and narrow-minded groups of people I ever met. Very arrogant and self-absorbed. Of the 8 people that I met on site, 3 did not know for which position I was being interviewed. Corporate hospitality at this firm is non-existent: they scheduled a full day of interviews and did not plan for a restroom break. The meetings were in 30 minute slots and started 20 minutes late. Each subsequent interviewer had to walk in on the previous one and interrupt. This made the already unpleasant environment worse. Only reason I kept interviewing was because jobs are scarce. Would not recommend this place to anyone unless they have no other job options.

Interviewed Jul 2011 in Boston, MA (took a day)
This was an informational interview, so the interviewer asked basically no questions, and you had to talk and ask your questions for approximately a half an hour. Basically just going through your resume, interests, why you want to work there, etc.

Interviewed May 2010 in Boston, MA (took 2 weeks)
In my research of the company I read that they have an open door policy, and from my experience this rings true. This is also one of their core values. I contacted a Linked in connection who is Sr. Managing Director to see if he could get my information in front of the hiring manager. The hiring manager was also a Director of the company. Both Managers had long careers at MFS. They were very respectful and helpful and nice. The recruiter seemed disinterested however the administrative person who helped schedule everything was very efficient. The office space is in Back Bay and a beautiful building with incredible views. It is my opinion that this would be a great place to work.
