Pros

Not a lot to say about pros. Nice office (because they bought Barclays Global Investors).

Cons

Lots of cons: boiler room environment where they'll work you long hours with little perks, management has cheap mentality even when company is hugely profitable, almost everyone worships (or appear to worship) Larry Fink (CEO) - in some meetings there's a poster of Larry Fink, which reminds me the North Korean dictator. They might have a good reputation of being the biggest asset manager but it's an awful place to work . Arrogant people - they think they're the best even though they're far from it.
