Business Outlook

Pros

There is a lot of opportunity for new grades to learn in Bloomberg. Start-up environment & fast development cycle. Specially useful for new grades.

Cons

There are few bad parts as well. Location being one of them. Good for early stage of life, but it is hard for a family life while working in NY city. A bit time goes for commute. In general, work-life balance is an issue.

Pros

- Many entry level positions - Good chance of moving on from GCUS - Pantry is like a 7-11 - You get to learn from really smart people

Cons

- Some people are so smart that they lack a bit of EQ - May not be able to apply bloomberg's system to future jobs - Working along side with everyone so smart can make you feel stupid at times
