Pros

You'll get beefy projects that are important right from the start. They don't mess around and give you trivial work. The pros of this is obvious: you won't be bored, you'll have opportunities to learn and grow,, and you'll make a pretty good amount right after college.

Cons

The downside of course is that you'll often work long hours. People are expected to come in at 8:30 (others are 7:30 AM), and expected to work until 7 PM.

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.
