Pros

Supports employee career development. Good place to work if you're willing to take on new challenges.

Cons

BlackRock acquired a competitor in December 2009, so they're still working on ironing out the kinks. That said, progress is being made, and it's a good place to work.

Pros

This is a great company, great culture, very smart colleagues, a lot of opportunities. Everybody is busy trying to make it better, will need time to make it happen.

Cons

The acquisitions of other firms is making difficult to integrate different cultures, but they are doing a good job. I don't find anything particularly bad.
