Business Outlook

Pros

Opportunities to work abroad and to move around the company which is essential to career advancement. Working hard and developing relationships with management can go a long way

Cons

At times it is a truly unprofessional environment with incompetent leaders with no sense of how businesses work. Superior customer service is no longer at the forefront of the company.

Business Outlook

Pros

Working for Bloomberg, I have had the chance to learn a great deal about their database products, including, but not limited to, Bloomberg Law. My supervisor was kind enough to teach me how to operate a Bloomberg terminal. I have always had access to the best research training, and I feel that my work with Bloomberg has made me a more effective legal researcher. My supervisor is a consummate professional, and we have an excellent working relationship.

Cons

I have not experienced any negatives from working with Bloomberg. It has been a dream job from the start. I am not sure what to put in this category.
