VERY diverse company, supportive of women with many initiatives, big focus on sustainability and providing for the community. There is also a relatively flat hierarchy, lots of mentoring opportunities, drinks on Fridays and all around great culture.

The company has a very collaborative culture, you can expect to regularly be working with people across teams. Hierarchy is respected but I have found the social structure of the firm to be less rigid (a benefit of a smaller office). I have found senior people in the company are very open to providing insights into the business units, particularly to new starters. I have found that people's input into projects is encouraged regardless of their seniority. The company has a number of social programmes including sports clubs, monthly birthday celebrations and weekly office drinks. Joining a graduate analyst, we're paired with previous grads to share their experience and answer any questions that come with settling into a new company.

The culture at BlackRock is an area that has really stood out to me. I love the focus on diversity, the team is very collaborative and everyone is really willing to help each other out. I was only in the office for about a month and a half before COVID-19 hit and now have been WFH. I will say in that short time, I got to know a lot people which I think is a testament to the culture and have been able to maintain this even WFH.
