Pros

Generally a good environment. Compensation is above average for the amount of work that actually gets done. Good benefits.

Cons

Rigid mindset in management despite promoting otherwise. Lots of people scamming the system and not really doing any work. Poor mid level management.

Pros

- 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

As I mentioned above , its great to work with bloomberg because it has unbelivable transperency , the sales done by company is visible to all. No sprecial siting arrangement for bosses. No closed cubicles. Great accountability , every work item is ticketed and resposibilites are clear. Its financially stable so only your performanc e matters. Good Pay and ability to contribute in new product conceptualization and developement .

Cons

Some things can be bit bothering , too much of buisness focus so new ideas are strictly evaluated for ROI , may loose forest for tree.
