Terrible culture in alternatives business and company broadly - Summer Analyst BlackRock Employee Review

- Horrible culture of competitive and toxic behaviour towards junior employees - Associate brought me into a room, locked the door and began berating me for missing a deadline on a deal - I reported to HR / company outsourced therapist and spoke with my assigned buddy who simply told me to 'manage my emotions'. I recruited elsewhere after the summer. - 'Flexible time off' is a BS marketing tool. If you actually take time off, your performance review will be very negative and compensation will be heavily affected.
