Dynamic and fun, yet not cutting edge technology

Pros

Company is really dynamic - changes happen virtually every few months so you won't get bored. Environment is very good too - people are by and large friendly and supportive. Managers trust you with a lot of responsibility from early days. Performance is expected and rewarded.

Cons

The more people spent with the company the more they buy into the "Bloomberg way" of doing things even if it is against common sense and/or market practices. In particular, the technology foundations are fairly outdated and a lot of the time is spent fighting against the setbacks of existing systems as opposed to designing and delivering cutting edge solutions to clients.

Short but positive experience - think it would be good for someone in their early 20s to work there.

Pros

Great benefits, collegial environment. New York building is amazing - food is everywhere and views are beautiful.

Cons

Feel like another cog in the machine, worry about company's ability to innovate. Management in some departments is inexperienced.
