Pros

If in the right role (corporate strategy) there is a large breadth of departments and information to continuously learn.

Cons

Every other aspect of the workplace. Highly politicized (read kiss butt to get your bonus or advancement), management is incredibly denigrating, colleagues always trying to take credit for everything they touch.

Pros

Plenty of opportunity to work on project teams. Lots of exposure to senior leaders in HR and the businesses. Great collaboration in the One BlackRock spirit. Benefits to support employees and their families are good.

Cons

Workload can be challenging at times. However, you are gaining a lot of new skills in a short prior of time and the ability to work with leaders is worth it.
