Pros

There are too many pros at Bloomberg to name (depending on if you like the same things that I do - Open office plan: get to converse easily with managers, jump on board interesting projects, and provide insight when you overhear conversations where people are confused - Global workforce and global opportunities: Large projects can have you working with people on all 6 inhabited continents, flying there to do business, or transferring to a different country on an exchange program - Technology, Money, and News: Bloomberg is racing other companies to define the future of finance, and the media industry. These are daunting tasks but can be exciting, especially given the companies heft and ability to make waves - Great benefits: Medical, Vacation, etc - Summer Party: Need to experience it to understand

Cons

Bloomberg's work-life balance isn't for all. The lengthy vacation package comes, for many, with hours on end in the office, and a virtual 24 hour "on call" expectation, depending on your role and department.

Pros

The people I worked with are still some of my closest friends to this day. The benefits are amazing as well...can't get better medical anywhere.

Cons

Some of the most incompetent managers EVER. IT's all about "playing the game"..so basically, who kisses butt the most. Additionally, it's a culture where face time is everything to them. So you need to badge in every morning, badge out after a minimum 10 hour day.

Pros

Free food and access to influential people. Great for networking and being recruited to work for another company

Cons

Horrible management in the analytics department. Absolutely NO diversity at all. They hire young attractive people fresh out of college. By the time the young folks leave they are simply brainwashed. When you start working here you will have to change the way you walk, talk, dress. Imagine yourself as dough- they will shape you and will bully you into becoming a differnt person or face firing.
