Pros

There is a lot of opportunity for new grades to learn in Bloomberg. Start-up environment & fast development cycle. Specially useful for new grades.

Cons

There are few bad parts as well. Location being one of them. Good for early stage of life, but it is hard for a family life while working in NY city. A bit time goes for commute. In general, work-life balance is an issue.

Pros

Open communication, flexible work environment on the software development side. Great offices and very good perks. Very fair (good) compensation. Startup like approach to handling new projects.

Cons

The work hours are fairly inflexible. Working from home is very much discouraged. The employee time tracking system is fairly annoying and there's no flexibility on the amount of holidays you take.
