      Proprietary software, high school type work environment

      Senior software developer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Nice benefits and higher than average pay. Free snacks and drinks and various training programs. Larger than normal bonus packages.

      Cons

      The atmosphere at Bloomberg is very "high schoolish." A lot of insecure people trying to justify their job when it could be very easily eliminated. Tons of bloat and bureaucracy. Not a place where you want to work if you want to work in a typical software development environment. If you like to re-invent the wheel or work on Fortran, this place is for you. If you want to gain real skills to help you grow technically - look elsewhere.

      OK place to work

      Anonymous employee
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      - great benefits - great 401k - 4 weeks off with 5 days roll-over - a lot of education opportunities and classes - support exploring other jobs within the company - travel spending limits are generous

      Cons

      - big brother atmosphere - long days when in the office - long days and expect a lot of client meetings and travel after work hours when meeting clients - political and a lot depends on your relationship with your supervisor (if he/she likes you, you get away with a lot. If not, you don't) - limit your up-side in earnings

      Good place to work.

      R&d team lead
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Generally surrounded by smart people who like to work hard, play hard, and solve problems as a team ... which makes for a good team-work and stimulating environment. Also, lately more supportive of healthy lifestyles, with ability to occasionally work from home. Various opportunities for further education available in-house.

      Cons

      Cutting back on benefits recently. Raises have gotten smaller too. Also lately, too much "fluff recognition" (instead of show me the money).
