Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We’re pleased to hear you are enjoying your working environment. We’re disappointed to hear about your experience balancing work and your personal life. Our introduction of the Flexible Time Off benefit was to enable our employees to take as much paid time off as they need with manager approval, to balance work and personal demands, recharge and come back to the office feeling engaged and energized. We recommend talking to your manager or HR to figure out the right working situation for you.

Pros

Branding branding branding!!! an incredible brand, and having it on your resume opens some doors but not all.

Cons

The Preqin acquisition never really found its identity after becoming part of BlackRock. It felt like the focus shifted from listening to clients to fitting Preqin into a broader BlackRock strategy. As AI changes how firms access and analyze private market data, simply being a data provider isn’t enough anymore. My impression was that Preqin’s long-term value is likely to come from being integrated into the broader Aladdin ecosystem and APIs, rather than remaining a standalone platform. Leadership would benefit from spending more time listening to customers and the teams on the front lines instead of assuming they already know what the market wants.
