Pros

Great people/talent Culture is very strong and open. Access to senior management is probably like none-other on the street and having responsibility at a young age is common.

Cons

Career development is not a priority at BlackRock, and the compensation is below what the street is paying. It is a very clear trade-off: you get to work with the best and get great responsibility, but you won't get paid and moving around to different areas is not easy.

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.
