      The Bloomberg Way

      Sales representative
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      +Good salary potential +Good reputation +Ability to interact with anyone within the financial industry from back office to C-Suites.

      Cons

      +Zero flexibilty +80s US-leadership style which can be very brutal if you do not follow the Bloomberg way. + There are basically 4 people in the company who get whatever they want and everybody does what they say. Then there is "Mike" who is seen as god. Any middle manager would jump of a cliff if they were asked to as if not they wouldnt be in their position. +Your own opinion doesn't matter. +HR is non existent. Even if HR is involved the decision making is always done by sales.

      Worst Company Ever!

      Senior managing editor
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Nothing to say so not gonna say anything.

      Cons

      - Management games and politics: managers only promote their friends and allies; - Appraisal system unclear and random: no clear-cut metrics to guide staff; - Long hours and no work-life balance: employees expected to check the 'berg for messages and respond ASAP even if they're not on company devices; - Company doesn't respect privacy: can trace how many times staff take bathroom breaks, when they clock in/out, length of lunch breaks etc.

      Avoid if possible

      Anonymous employee

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Looks great on CV Lots of opportunities to learn Standard benefits package, no better or worse than competition Easy to sell as dominates sector, twice more terminals than Refinitiv installed

      Cons

      Long hours, standard 8-6 flat structure, takes ages to progress career Promotion is based on how manageable you are, are you willing to confirm to the culture Brightest people are never promoted When this is your first job in life be ready to work very very hard, and put up with lots of unfairness You will be clocked in and out all the time Bullying and harassment is part of culture although employee guide condemns it If you are on visa be ready to be exploited as the company knows you have no choice but to be compliant Work is mechanical as there are processes You have to log every move, call, meeting into crm You will fly a lot and stay in hotels a lot if you are in a sales role You will see zero smiles and happiness and soon you will be the same
