      Pros

      very good compensation, good health insurance plan. free snack and soda, breakfast.

      Cons

      1.No career growth at all, there are too many political stuff in this company. I saw many people who don't contribute more than others in the team but get promoted to team leader or manager, just because they have good personal relationship with their boss. 2. Not very professional in terms of software development. Bloomberg hire a lot of non-professional person to do the software development. Many people never or seldom developed software before they join this company. So there are a lot of poor code waiting for you to maintain and fix.

      Pros

      - Free sneaks (but the selection has become worse) - Nice office building in good location - More stable than investment banks and other financial service firms

      Cons

      - No privacy in the office - Small desk, no cubical - Cost cutting: benefit has been reduced year over year and getting worse - Slow growth - No more free medical insurance. Use to be free, but now the company charge insurance premiums. - High turnover. Many people leave within 2 year or less. - very political place, very hard to get things done. Senior management does not want to take risk by invest in new projects. - flat structure, hard to grow. - Long working hour - Below market average compensation

      Pros

      Fantastic learning opportunities/extensive training. You'll meet a lot of great people.

      Cons

      You won't make a lot of money, even when you bring in revenue. There's an arrogance from the top, that the lowly sales person doesn't make it happen that the brilliant product sells itself and you're fortunate to be there, so they judge you on petty metrics that don't translate to revenue. There's an enormous lack of trust, you're treated like a child. Big brother looms. It's reminiscent of 1984.
