Pros

BlackRock has a great work/life balance. Management is usually very understanding of family needs, vacations and they even allow you to work from different offices if need be. They have great benefits including the 401k contribution as well as an additional contribution at the end of the year, outsource a free service that will help to save you time and research anything you or your family could need, emergency childcare services, great materity/paternity time off.

Cons

It is not as easy to transfer within the company as was alluded to upon being hired. The pay is not as comparable as other companies offer, but the name you are able to put on the resume is priceless.

Pros

Respectable company, working with smart people for the most people.

Cons

Huge company, can be hard to navigate, almost impossible to get fired so good workers pick up slack for bad works. They need to trim fat faster and better
