Pros

Good starter salary and very patient and understanding management.

Cons

In some cases, I still felt judged and treated differently. I felt as though I had to code switch and carry myself a certain in order to be seen and respected. If I didn’t smile enough or engage to someone else’s expectations. Than I was considered short, pushy or aggressive. Also not as much diversity,

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.
