MSCI Reviews

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We appreciate your positive perception about our colleagues and that you view MSCI as a place where you will make great friends.

We understand that you have a negative take on how MSCI supports employees to ‘fit in’ to the culture. For the past few years, we have focused our annual engagement survey to better understand what areas and behaviors require greater effort from our managers to create a positive, highly engaged culture within their teams and the overall company. Our results have paid off -- engagement has increased by 50% since 2011. 90% of employees who responded to our engagement survey in 2017 would recommend MSCI as a firm to do business with; 86% of employees are proud to work at MSCI and 82% of employees would recommend working at the firm, up 3% from 2016.

Committed to increasing employee engagement and retention, and in response to feedback from our engagement survey, MSCI created the Accelerate Leadership Development Program and the Experienced Manager Program to support the growth of managers and leaders at the Firm.

Employees are also able to participate in multiple offerings to build relationships with colleagues and leaders in formal and informal settings. Activities include our Connect NY mentoring program, Fireside Chats with leaders, and regular town halls. In 2017 we hosted a career panel, book discussions groups, happy hour with the Executive Committee, Fun Day and our new Service Award Recognition Program.

These activities help us to create a work environment that will empower colleagues to contribute their best work, build connections across functions, and grow their careers. For additional questions or comments, please contact your local HR Partner.... MoreLess

Thank you for your comments. It is great you believe we have a "collegiate and dynamic work environment.” Just to be accurate, attrition throughout MSCI and in the vast majority of locations is at all time lows and full employee engagement according to our engagement survey is at all time highs. That said, we are working hard to create an employee culture where everyone is valued, can thrive and contribute at their very best and welcome suggestions for improvement.... MoreLess

We appreciate you sharing your perspective. MSCI San Francisco is a very important office within our firm, including several key teams that are led by San Francisco-based team members. In the past two years, 45% of the employees in the San Francisco office were promoted - a reflection of the talent and growth of our West Coast colleagues.

Based on feedback by other employees and data we routinely collect, our culture, work environment and engagement are continuing to strengthen. MSCI will continue to invest in our San Francisco colleagues, as this is vital to our Firm’s ongoing growth.

Finally, MSCI provides multiple avenues and opportunities for employees to provide feedback on their managers, team members and colleagues. This feedback plays a key role in evaluating each individual’s performance as well as informing future project and team leadership decisions.... MoreLess
