Your Experience
Bradley Pitter

“What I like about being an MDP is you get to taste a little bit of everything. Not only do you get to work on things you know, but you are also encouraged to take tasks you’re unfamiliar with, which helped me figure out what I want to do and take ownership of projects at an early stage of my career.“​​​​​​​

“Coming out of college, I had all these interests and didn’t know what that tangibly looked like in a career, so getting to come to a place that encourages you to try things and find the right spot for you was very appealing.”

“Being an MDP really propelled me to think about how I take ownership of my work and the responsibilities that are given to someone early in their career. The thing I like about Morningstar is you succeed as much as the amount of ownership you take on.”
