Pros

Multicultural environment full. The pantry, learning environment. Amazing office space. Ok salary. Some very smart people however a lot of them tend to leave.

Cons

Micromanagement. I wouldn't advise going for this job if you've had a career before bloomberg. Brain drain. Smart people leave sometimes less than a year into the job.

Pros

Good Benefits (Insurance, Free Lunch) Good Hours (Ability to start within a given time range and leave withing a given time range)

Cons

Lack of Career Growth Monotonous work Constantly changing technology that are never used. Spend weeks working to implement new technology and structure only for the structure to change when the work is completed. Changing technologies are almost impossible as some systems are decades old and have dependencies that seem like they will never be changed Projects are given without scoping out possibilities and dependencies. Decisions are made from the top level without an understanding of what is actually possible. Made based on what management think will work Very little communication between Data and R&D side both which have completely different understanding of systems and time allocated. Makes joint projects very difficult especially when Data pushes one thing which R&D says is impossible

Non intellectually challenging Job

Pros

The pay is good and you finish at 6pm. Even though when you are young and energetic you might want to finish later to kick start your career

Cons

The job is horrible, everything you do is followed and monitored, you are a smart graduate with a critical mind and you end up being on a call center helping impolite people. This job could be done by a Robot. The worse part is that you are constantly timed and must not exceed 10 minutes per request
