Business Outlook

Pros

The office and company culture are really great. Friendly nice people for the most part. Non-hierarchical, making senior level employees approachable. Free food and good perks such as museum discounts.

Cons

Little opportunity for advancement. A large portion of the company come from the entry level programs who start their careers at Bloomberg and then never leave. Sometimes a sense of entitlement, people believing they are better than their peers
