My analyst experience at the World's Largest Asset Manager - Recensione dipendente - Dipendente anonimo presso BlackRock

Largest Asset Manager. The worst performing funds, no alpha ability. Antiquated technology. Extreme bureaucracy, to the point of senior management micro-managing very junior employees and processes. Run like a small little shop in a very literal way. Everything has to go through a very few select group of people which takes months and then some. If you like twelve sometimes sixteen hour plus days due to poor processes, tech systems and management style, this is your place ! After several years of this you will learn practically nothing useful in the outside world. Well they do sponsor your CFA, so that's good I guess. Heavily off shored with people making 1/10th American salaries doing similar jobs but very poorly (due to poor culture, training and education). Be prepared to spend time off-shore in sub-par lodging with unclean food and drinking water.
