      Mixed - smart people but absolutely no middle/senior management - Managing Director BlackRock Employee Review

      Pros

      Smart people, committed and dedicated. A lot of teamwork and cooperation. Perhaps not as political as some other financial companies.

      Cons

      Absolutely no management whatsoever; not even the first principles of management are applied. Several managers are just whimsical and survive only because of their length of stay at the company. Constant shifting of direction based on whims and moods of senior management contributes to a fairly low morale.

      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.
