Pros

Perks - lunch, 401K, pretty good healthcare, great pay.

Cons

The technology stack is often as old as Methuselah except for very few groups. Too many inexperienced managers who have worked no where else but Bloomberg leading to a massively insular culture with respect to the best of breed in technology. Going there as a senior engineer could seriously stall your technical growth.
