FT Job Decision: BlackRock or Wellington Management
Deciding between full-time 2022 new grad positions at BlackRock and Wellington Management.
Both are the same/similar quant positions with the same base salary and bonus. BlackRock's available offices are in San Fran and NYC, while Wellington is in Boston. Taxes and rent are comparatively lower in Boston.
BlackRock position: Risk and Quantitative Analyst
Wellington Management: Investment Science
Looking for opinions. Heard that while Wellington is smaller, it is more prestigious? Also heard that my performance could be recognized more at Wellington since it is smaller compared to BlackRock. I plan on going to grad school after a year or two for data science.
What’s the role? Would go with Wellington here. Culture, location, private partnership structure makes a long term career there very sweet and desirable. No MBA needed as well.
I just added the positions to the post. They're both quant roles.
Heavily depends on the roles
Added the roles. The role at Wellington is a lot more selective than BlackRock's.
Slight lean towards Wellington. Both both are good choices man. Like deciding between Harvard and Yale, there is no wrong answer.
