Pros

Pay is good and if you show up on time and write tidy programmers notes you'll never get fired.

Cons

Utter stifling of creativity and innovation. You're required to detail all time spent in programmers notes. Try putting in some notes about thinking about the big picture! It would be comic if not sad that humans are expected to work and act as automatons -- and dumb automatons at that, impervious to the fact they're being talked down to at every minute. I've watched really smart people who needed the money become shadows of their own selves. Oh and not to mention: the technology is antique.

Pros

Bloomberg has a great compensation and benefits package. It is a good company to develop your career fresh out of college.

Cons

Bloomberg was a great place to work a few years ago. However in the last few years it has become increasingly bureaucratic. It has lost the vision and zeal of its founder, Michael Bloomberg. Today the same creativity and boldness that Michael Bloomberg encouraged is no longer an asset, in fact, it is discouraged. The user interface for its primary product is dated.
