      Pros

      The company is huge but is run like a start-up firm. Depending on the function you work in, it is typical to interact with senior leadership regularly. It is also a big name in the industry that can open more doors for you, so it's nice to have on any resume.

      Cons

      It is a very political place that values politics over performance. It's more challenging for people of color to succeed in prestigious teams. People who leave often say, "You cannot pay me a million dollars to go work in that place."

      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.
