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.
