Pros

Benefits are not bad. You have quite some perks like free food etc if you care about it. It's very international especially in London office, you have ppl from all over Europe with all kinds of accents.

Cons

Most people have to go through core terminal sales before they can be qualified to do other job functions. Core terminal sales is just really a sales job and Bloomberg's all about how many terminals you've sold, esp at some core terminal sales team. The mid-level management is so so, so called 'team leader'. Some of them are very young. You have to be loud to do well most of the time.
