Business outlook
Pros
biggest asset manager in the world broad range of products and some blue-chip clients "one BlackRock" architectural model kind of impressive (though often not followed)
Cons
decisions are taken far away in NY without consulting the people who know what they are doing staff are not empowered to act on their own and independent thought is discouraged (I found out the hard way) technology is very old-fashioned and variable quality presenteeism culture especially in the US terminal short-termism in IT planning
