      Great packages, but not a great place to learn

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Great building, competitive salary, excellent benefits package, multi-cultural environment. If you are fresh from college, have no work experience, or would like to find someone to date, an excellent place to work! Unlikely to get fired for any reason. Free food. Really high turnover, so you may get a sales job even if you were a programmer.

      Cons

      The technology is ancient (the majority). A lot of programmers are simply maintaining legacy code (fortran, c) that cannot be retired or converted. The company also uses a TON of proprietary software, all developed in-house. For example, they've created their own Service oriented architecture (ala WSDL), two home-grown databases, entire UI framework, and other things.

      Bloomberg is a truly global operation.

      Pros

      - Excellent health and vacation benefits. - Solid exposure to the financial markets. - More responsibility is quickly entrusted to those willing to undertake it.. - Free snacks - Offices are located in almost every major financial district in the world and are often elaborately decorated. - Truly global operations.

      Cons

      - There is a big push to work long hours. - A lot of the junior level positions are given repetitive tasks. - Some positions are extremely high stress. - Work environment can be quite stiff (few people spend time together outside of work). - Free snacks are mostly unhealthy.

      Not a bad place. If you have it in you, you will shine.

      Pros

      Very open environment. Very good place to start a career in finance especially when you dont have background in financial industry.

      Cons

      It is not a bank or investment firm. So, don't expect any front office exposure. Be prepared to work in technologies that may sound obsolete elsewhere. Be prepared for a deadline that is every other week.
