Pros

BlackRock's focus on putting clients first and maintaining high ethical standards are reasons alone to work there. Combine that with the opportunity to work with many intelligent, hard-working individuals is great.

Cons

BlackRock has become a very large firm. Like all large firms, red-tape can increase and it can make the work experience cumbersome at times.

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.
