A lot of pros just a couple of cons
Pros
- Bloomberg really takes the time to train its staff well which makes it a good place straight out of university especially if your specialism was not finance. - There are some very smart individuals working there from whom you can learn a lot. - Standard 8-6 hours so you know when you will be out the door. - If you are in a team with good managers, then you do feel like something greater - a real family feel (I have experienced this first-hand) - Have never encountered sexism, can progress well as a woman. - Good pay/general benefits and working towards a better bonus structure from 2016 onwards.
Cons
- If you get placed in a team or are in a department with bad/incompetent/micro-managing/ nonsensical-metric-oriented managers then you will feel like another cog in the wheel and be very disheartened. - The standard hours are a little too long and inflexible (but the pros of this still stands). - Some over promising and under delivering with career progression, you are at the mercy of your manager or team leader.
