      Nightmare if you have aspirations, heaven if all you want is work life balance

      Software developer - mobile

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - Good salary - Super relaxed - No pressure

      Cons

      - Everyone I worked with who had career aspirations have left. Everyone who just wants a good work life balance stays (so the average age is quite high) - Some arrogant managers and favouritism. - There is no career progression for developers and this is by design. - Managers and team leads have little to no people skills. They are technically strong but are very unskilled at people management and coaching. You will be managed by good project managers who are technically strong and have no idea how to grow and coach people because they are chosen for their project management skills and not people skills. - The mobile app is a secondary product that the rest of the business doesn't care about so you are always working on something secondary and insignificant to clients. - You will be working on a legacy codebase that is huge and moves very slowly with so much bureaucracy

      If you have other offer don't come to Bloomberg

      Software engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Work-Life Balance is good. I sometimes leave work around 4 pm

      Cons

      Overall an old company that cares mostly about seniority and is stubborn about policy 1. They insisted on returning to the office during covid times. Which makes me think they don't care about their employee's health. (Since I am a software engineer, it's not like I really need to complete the work in the office) 2. In some teams, what you can learn is finite. After you learn every part, you probably won't learn new things unless you change team 3. Your assessment of your mentor or TL doesn't seem to affect them. Therefore, some mentors or TLs won't be very helpful 4. For non-senior-level software engineers, Bloomberg helps process the green card after one year of joining. However, the company asked the employees to stay for at least stay 2 years after they got their GC or you need to pay them back. Moreover, if you leave the company within 3 years, you need to give back your 401k matched.
