Pros

The pay and benefits were competitive.

Cons

Management played favorites, to the detriment of employee morale and group functioning. There were many managers who preferred to stick their heads in the sand instead of proactively addressing problem situations and employees. Groups worked in silos, making it difficult to build cross-functional teams. Bureaucracy was king. Technology problems were frequent, and resulted in significant slowdowns and losses in productivity.

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.
