Pros

BlackRock has been trying to set a culture and set of principles that are definitely something to look upto and be a part of.

Cons

1. Even though BlackRock as a firm is great, local culture within teams could influence your experience at workplace. For example, even though BlackRock promotes internal mobility, after delivering top quality work for 2 years when I cleared 10 interview rounds to join another team, my manager literally screw me over for selfish purposes. 2. Local Team Lead (who has nothing to do with my work) used to micro-manage and keep a record of my desk time. Not only that, he used to send disciplinary mails and share his records of my desk time with my managing director. That was literally pathetic!!

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.
