Pros

BlackRock has great name recognition and lots of resources to learn whatever you are interested in. Somewhat flexible hours depending on the team.

Cons

Rampant racial bias, awful middle management, mediocre people, grew too quickly to keep up with processes and industry standards, uncompetitive pay. Touts how it is not an investment bank and doesn’t have bank culture but definitely does.

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.
