Pros

Good career advancement ability, great management, supportive atmosphere, very smart people, good training and ability to move to different roles within the company

Cons

Very, very long hours. Poor pay for the hours asked to work, analysts in the most common group regularly log over 60 hours a week for standard street pay (with some cases lower)

Pros

Great people/talent Culture is very strong and open. Access to senior management is probably like none-other on the street and having responsibility at a young age is common.

Cons

Career development is not a priority at BlackRock, and the compensation is below what the street is paying. It is a very clear trade-off: you get to work with the best and get great responsibility, but you won't get paid and moving around to different areas is not easy.
