      Pros

      Seems to be a great corporate culture- HR people were very welcoming and friendly. Lots of good food before the interview started. Beautiful building and in a good area of NY.

      Cons

      I interviewed for the PAG group- not much diversity within the group, and by this I mean that everybody was indian or asian. Very few white people and not a lot of cool dudes by the looks of it.

      Pros

      My comments are about BlackRock Solutions - - Fast growing business - Opportunities in a variety of business areas and geographical locations - Junior folks (analysts and associates) can gain experience working with experienced and smart folks in different business areas - Meritocracy - Technology oriented business Overall comments - - Senior management very focused in making BLK HR and IT policies employee friendly - Latest technology (both hardware and software) among peers

      Cons

      - Long hours - Limited exposure to different business areas if stationed in a regional office - Pay is sub-par by industry standards

      Pros

      Neurotic, workaholic New York culture hasn't entirely rubbed off on West Coast offices. You can still find work-life balance in SF and Seattle offices. And... I think we're just as, if not more, effective at our jobs.

      Cons

      If you want to climb the corporate ladder, it's overall better to do so in the New York office.
