Pros

Throughout my time at Moody’s, I’ve seen meaningful changes that have helped the company progress both internally and externally. One of the things I appreciate most is the supportive leadership within the People function. They have invested in my development and trust me in my role, which allows me to make decisions more quickly and confidently, knowing my managers have my back. I’ve benefited from career growth opportunities like new positions, side projects, and participation in a leadership development program and career coaching. It’s also refreshing to work in an environment where leadership is willing to experiment, take risks, and learn from failure—something that historically wasn't done. Additionally, my manager genuinely listens to feedback and takes action, which can be rare in large organizations. Another MAJOR perk is flexible work arrangements. Since we operate globally and often adjust our hours to accommodate different time zones, I have the ability to structure my schedule in a way that allows me to focus on high-impact work while maintaining my personal life. Overall an excellent place to work and for me has been a place to grow.

Cons

Workforce planning could be better

Pros

- Good company wide culture (see notes below on ratings specific culture) good people - Great work life balance (especially for finance in NYC) - Opportunity to learn from most of the c-suite - If you want the return offer you can usually get it (only know one person from my year who wanted one and didn't get one). - The ratings intern program is essentially gauging if your competent to extend a return offer. You don't actually do much work for your team.

Cons

- Can't touch anything an actual associate does because of regulations in industry (don't get exposure with what you'll actually be doing full time). - Because you can't touch anything you basically spend the entire summer being talked at by senior analysts (learned a ton but can get repetitive). - Hybrid schedule is only really adhered to by associates on your team, so the office feels deserted at times. The seniors don't come into the office much. The ratings floors (separate from the rest of the business) have a stale and silent feeling. - Because you don't really do much for your team it's hard to create relationships with them. - Your capstone project can be on a completely different industry then the one you're assigned to.
