Pros

Good pay! People are overall nice.

Cons

IT Department in BlackRock is the worst thing can happen in one career life. Everything is so manual, no process, no SLA, super chaotic causing long hours. Everything is reactive, senior management is incapable to support anything proactive or probably doesn't care. Money are spent on dumb things like office move, desk move, purchasing things that so many times more expensive than market...list can go on forever.

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
