Pros

The coworkers are generally nice, but information sharing could be tricky in competitive situations.

Cons

Compensation is abysmal if you don't work on the Alpha team; talk to anybody at Risk Management, Finance, Operations, IT and you will get the idea. I left for a bank and received a large raise.

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.
