Business Outlook
Pros
Great pay and benefits; lots of smart people; interesting + global business; fast pace;
Cons
BlackRock is essentially a small firm that bought it's way to being big and missed many lessons along the way -- like how to develop senior and middle management and gain scale by leveraging people and building strong process. Lots of chaos and shifting priorities being micromanaged by a few people at / near the top.
