Pros

Big name, good for resume

Cons

- pay is below industry average - although the firm PRs its friendly culture, it really is hierarchical - your boss won't care about your personal goals, thus you won't have a real career here - a lot of people working here are massively underqualified

Pros

Plenty of opportunity to work on project teams. Lots of exposure to senior leaders in HR and the businesses. Great collaboration in the One BlackRock spirit. Benefits to support employees and their families are good.

Cons

Workload can be challenging at times. However, you are gaining a lot of new skills in a short prior of time and the ability to work with leaders is worth it.
