Pros

Takes great care of engineers, doesn't kick older ones to the curb, usually has challenging work to do. Great for ancient-technology spelunkers.

Cons

Used to rush new features out too quickly, leading to decades' worth of weird legacy systems that few understand with no real automated testing. Now focused more on stability, making better choices, but the pace of improvements is slower and overall risk not really balanced out yet. Some problems with managers who did things the old way still in charge but trying to adjust.

Pros

Great working environment, nice package, enjoy all the food and staff benefits

Cons

however, if you have met a horrible team leader, your career in Bloomberg is pretty much doomed. That depends on how lucky you are.
