          Pros

          During my time at Morgan Stanley, I observed some challenges in terms of leadership and the overall strategic direction of the organization I was part of. There seemed to be a lack of clear guidance and a coherent vision, which affected the efficiency and effectiveness of teams. Additionally, While HR plays a crucial role in any organization, I felt that there were issues related to transparency and fairness at Morgan Stanley. In some instances, it appeared that HR was more inclined to protect management rather than addressing employee concerns impartially. I resigned due to the chaos - Unfortunately, although I asked HR and my manager to approve my move to another group due to my role not being a good fit, I had to resign for my own mental health. That is so ashamed a company like Morgan Stanley promoting people that lack good leadership just for the sake of D&I.

          Cons

          I had the opportunity to build valuable friendships and relationships with some truly exceptional individuals across the company.

        Are case studies/presentations a normal part of interview processes? This is in addition to several interview rounds. These typically take 2 days to do, and require of anywhere from 6-15 slides worth of information, and require deep dives into company product portfolios, use cases, competitive advantages, application to fictitious customer scenario JUST to present. It's exhausting to have to do multiples of these and feels like free labor.

        im beating myself up. I had 3rd interview yesterday. I think all interviews went well, particularly my 2nd one. In this one (and now that I’m thinking about it, this also happened in my first one) I accidentally started answering a question before the interviewer finished the question. When I realized I did this, I immediately stopped and said “im sorry I interrupted you, please continue”. When this happened yesterday, the interviewer stopped to jot something down. Did I cost myself the job??

        I’ve gone through too many interviews now, with some being extremely promising until the 3rd-4th round and I get hit with an email stating: “We’re putting this position on hold to refocus on what we really need from the role” Or something similar. What is going on with these job postings and then freezing the hiring? I can’t be just a Q4 thing because I’ve gone through this over the summer with multiple interviews. Is it me? Or is the market really that right for everyone right now?
