Business Outlook

Pros

free snacks, drinks, food. Excellent healthcare benefits, bike to work program, smoking cessation, philanthropy programs, entrepreneurial in values, innovative, fast-paced, everyone is connected, full transparency to everything. Promotions are quick if you are an all-star performer.

Cons

complete transparency, you need to work on the Street and then go to BBG to earn a nice salary. They work recent college grads to the bone; you're chained to the desk with golden handcuffs. need to drink the company kool-aid to make a difference and get promoted. Everything is becoming automated and tasks become mundane. No work/life balance. Always have to be connected to the terminal.
