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.
