Pros

Good perks, opportunities to travel and meet all walks of life, good pay for those who have recenty graduated. Good training ground.

Poor management, continuous moving targets, noise of poor performers drowns out quiet determination and successes of good workers. Too many 'wanna-bes'.

Business Outlook

Pros

Bloomberg is a very successful company. Pay is good. Software projects are often interesting and challenging. Coworkers are smart and helpful; they freely sharing knowledge and offer good advice.

Cons

The pace of work is too fast. The quality of the software suffers a lot from huge time pressures that seem to come from all directions.

Business Outlook

Pros

Stability, great benefits, good work life balance, great building, cool culture- every is young and has a lot of energy. It's a fun, social environment

Cons

It feels like college again, with all the metrics/testing- not a good determinant for quality employees. Management is very hit or miss; should have more flexibility and not be so micro-managed. Everyone is from a no name school. Even senior management; people are too complacent here. Not enough room to grow, and the pay sucks.
