Pros

good and flexible culture, strong and ethical leadership, the resources of Wall Street are available at your fingertips with the BlackRock name, job stability

Cons

really frustrating compensation growth for employees. time and time again I've seen really talented people leave for greener pastures solely because of money. and management decides to fill the hole by hiring someone external and pay them more. why not just make your employees that you've developed and nurtured happy ?

As you probably know, at BlackRock, we follow a pay for performance structure that rewards all employees fairly for their contributions and allows them to share in the firm’s growth and success. If you’re unsatisfied with your pay, we encourage you to discuss this matter with your manager and HR.
