Pros

It used to be an awesome place to work.

Cons

At this point, almost everything is a con. There is a huge lack of transparency both in FutureAdvisor leadership and in Blackrock leadership. Any dissent is not tolerated. People are leaving FutureAdvisor in droves. It's full "abandon ship" there. FutureAdvisor has moved within Blackrock's main office now, and the lines have been so blurred, the culture of FutureAdvisor has been completely destroyed. The worst part is that management doesn't even realize the damage they have done and continue to do to their employees. Managers only care about getting the next product out, at whatever cost. Morale has been gone for better part of a year. It seems like at this point management is doing thing to encourage people to leave.

Pros

decent pay and good name drop to add to your experience and resume

Cons

everything!! since this was a contract role I was brought in to complete a project with 0 leadership or direction. I was left to figure out everything completely on my own from finding a computer and a desk and a phone to figuring out who to contact in India etc to help me revamp the entire global website on the backend. I literally had to show up to work everyday at least an hour early so that I could possibly try to find a open desk sometimes I had to work on the floor or find somewhere in the lunchroom I could set up in the corner this went on for over a month.
