Pros

The generational company is one of the best success stories on wall street and probably in NYC past 30 years. A unique mix of finance and technology and still does not seem like having any kind of identity crisis, is able to merge both worlds seamlessly. Technologically it is not given enough credit for having built a client-server model before anyone else commercialized, homegrown numerous enterprise-level products like databases, telemetry, deployment systems, rollbacks, and tons of innovations. Genuinely cares about employee.

Cons

The personal trading policy is strict, considering 99.99% of employees have no access to any non-public information. The company is famous for its flat structure but skip level communication is lacking. Any escalation, including impersonal team level constructive feedback, is sent back to the manager with not much anonymity. So basically stifling and discouraging any skip-level positive feedback loop. Because there is a very tight lid on salaries and Bloomberg is a private company, there is random variance in salary across teams and groups.
