Pros

Hard to find any really

Cons

Awful atmosphere in the London office allegedly a meritocracy but not for poor gentile folk.. some seem to be getting all the chances. I have had my work and projects turned down and ridiculed only for a team leader or middle manager to re-badge the work under their own name a few weeks later. Avoid this place its not a happy office at all dont let the fancy architecture fool or bait you in.

A good place to get some experience and the move on.

Bloomberg has been down sizing and also replacing experienced workers with people with minimal experience. Those who remain absorb the extra work load.

Pros

Working for Bloomberg opens doors in finance. You can get access to pretty much anyone you want to talk to.

Cons

Management is capricious. Some editors appear to enjoy being unpleasant to subordinates. This side of life at Bloomberg outweighs the benefits.
