Nice people but horrible weak management, No career prospects

It technical engineer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

You get free food and drinks. summer party

Cons

Weak management. Very cliquey, Bloomberg claims to be a transparent company but nothing is further from the truth. People are very independent just worrying about their own backs careers. There is no management support all they seem to focus on is sucking up to senior managers for their own personal gains. You are not treated with any kind of respect just a commodity. The whole structure of the company breeds disloyalty mistrust and low morale. I would not advise anyone to take up a career at bloomberg it DOESNT do what it says on the tin. The only benefit i came away with was that it looks good on my CV period !

Pros

benefits, perks, food, and great salary. There are many things about bloomberg that were good, there was help when you needed it and then best of everything if needed.

Cons

long hours and very high pressure environment - people are treated as employees first and people second so very difficult to have a life outside work.
