Pros

Prior to the Blackrock's acquisition, BGI was a good place to work. Employees were generally rewarded for hard work, job benefits were above average, bonus was competitive (assuming the investment market performed well).

Cons

BGI was a good place to work, until Blackrock acquired it. Certainly with acquisitions one could expect more change and uncertainity, however Blackrock's approach has certainly focused on cost savings, lacked transparency and inspiration. Little was done to retain BGI talent.
