Pros

Top notch and dedicated coworkers. The firm is well positioned to handle the current crisis, despite the recent fall in stock price. Overall compensation is strong. Management supports movement within the firm. Work and life balance seems fairly strong across the firm, although long hours can be expected in most positions. Opportunities for advancement are plentiful, and hard work seems to be well rewarded. Top management is well respected, and has a great deal of experience.

Cons

Hours can be somewhat longer than at peer firms. Base salaries may not be as high as at some other firms. There really is not very much to complain about here.

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.
