Pros

Very driven people with good mentoring and learning

Cons

People are not a focus (comp is below peers) and WFH is now limited to 1 day a week For a tech company, the tech is super outdated - nothing really works and support functions are sub-par Overall, it gives the impression of cost saving everywhere (limited social and training budgets, awful support functions, offices are super outdated)

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.
