      Pros

      Nicer to be employed than unemployed.

      Cons

      Knowing the employee turnover and general opinions of employees (that you hear in the office), I don't understand who writes these 4-5 star reviews? Bloomberg HR maybe? My recollection is that pretty much everybody plans on leaving when the first opportunity comes, as the company is rotten to the core. The managers are either young pets, who are brown nosing the seniors, or mediocre "Tony Middle Level Manager"s, who have stayed at Bloomberg since 1986, as they are too incompetent to get a job anywhere else. In London, the turnover is the highest, and in Princeton some people stay longer as they are less other opportunities around. Bloomberg is not the first choice for anybody! People work at Bloomberg only because they have to.

      Pros

      - Long-term colleagues were nice, understood what was really going on - Canteen for breakfast/lunch/snacks - Good job for early starters, looks good on the CV - Benefits were decent

      Cons

      - You're not getting anywhere unless you're one of the favourites. Opportunities and advancements repeatedly handed out to the same handful of people in a 30-man team. - Team Leaders and Managers often too young, arrogant and inexperienced. Will try to micromanage everything their team does. - Department as a whole is only concerned with work by stats/numbers. No real understanding or appreciation of staff effort if their stats aren't 100% perfect. - Too much pressure to live up to company's 'reputation' standards. Staff are underpaid and overworked. - Department very reluctant to let anyone have any time off due to language cover. You will often have to book your time off several months in advance, and if you call in sick, TLs will harass and hound you until you come back into work. - Company hides behind a facade of being 'modern' and 'intuitive' and 'not like other big companies'. Don't buy into it so easily.

      Pros

      Def had some quirky coworkers. Was lucky enough to occasionally spot some celebrities. Overall laid back environment where you can dress down most days

      Cons

      Being it was a weekly publication, the pressure would build up for deadline day every tuesday. Those same quirky personalities can morph into some pretty scary people.
