Blackrock takeover of BGI was like being assimilated by the Borg - IT (Associate) BlackRock Employee Review

1. you will acquire a boring non transferable skill set 2. you will not be given any transferable technical training unless you are willing to do it in your own time and pay for it yourself 3. If you're not a legacy Blackrock employee you have little chance of career development 4. not enough legacy BGI employees left to support the BGI applications 5. management ignore staff who have resigned and are working their notice - in some cases they won't even look at them - bizarre! 6. low morale and a general feeling of hopelessness in the London office
