Pros & Cons
The supportive culture and flat hierarchy. Also the ability to be entrusted with leading projects and be responsible for tasks at a junior level.
Very flexible hours... there is a certain level of trust involved with manager and managee. When work is light, less hours is more than fine, treated like adults.
BlackRock in Australia promotes a very accessible and friendly, flat hierarchy. We champion an inclusive and collaborative culture.
Lots of growth opportunities and exposure to different areas.
The office space is amazing - great harbour views! Location is also great, right next to the three main stations.
Due to the sheer size and scale of the business, completing a straightforward procedure can require levels of approvals and coordination across various parts of the business.
The size.
Graduate pay is slightly below average in Australia.
Performance feedback is ad hoc - a lot of the times you do have to take the initiative to ask for it.
More transparency in the business rotations the graduates will be in and the options there are for graduates to experience.

Career Prospects
Do well in your job and always go above and beyond, and also ensure you have a good network to support you in your career.
The managers I've had thus far have been very accessible - always making time for me and finding ways and opportunities to increase my learning opportunities and exposure.
Work hours range from 9-10 hours daily. Hours are generally flexible... so long as you get your work done, and are mostly present at work - the hours are in your control.
