Pros

The BlackRock brand looks good on your resume.

Cons

Below average compensation. Limited growth opportunities. Many sociopathic coworkers. Not a meritocracy. All the best employees eventually leave. The Toronto office does not live up to the organization's principles. The most recent positive reviews appear fake and read like they were written by bots. The job titles "financial analyst" and "senior portfolio manager" do not exist in the Toronto office. Job applicants beware.

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
