Pros

very good compensation, good health insurance plan. free snack and soda, breakfast.

Cons

1.No career growth at all, there are too many political stuff in this company. I saw many people who don't contribute more than others in the team but get promoted to team leader or manager, just because they have good personal relationship with their boss. 2. Not very professional in terms of software development. Bloomberg hire a lot of non-professional person to do the software development. Many people never or seldom developed software before they join this company. So there are a lot of poor code waiting for you to maintain and fix.

Pros

Great opportunity to meet and sell with other like minded colleagues. Opportunities to grow vertically are always available but takes time to jump roles. In the end, was offered a job which I held for two years

Cons

The pay isn't great and has a low morale after competing products offer cheaper solutions. I worked on a travel team and expected better compensation which never arrived.

Pros

Mostly great colleges Good managers who cares about their employees Transparency (anyone can find out what other employees are working on) Opportunity to get training on the job Employees are encouraged to move around and there are programs specifically set up for employees to find the right team Management becoming more concerned about the needs of developers (every getting new computers and much bigger monitors) Some good technical work done depending on the team

Cons

A lot of what you experience can vary drastically depending on your team (Unfortunately, some teams may have to maintain application written using out of date technology, but I think that is slowly changing for the better) Some internal politics to deal with, but I think this inevitable in a company of this size
