Unique company culture with questionable structural issues

Event manager

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Great people, interesting culture and challenging work if you're in the right spot. Professional growth is completely dependent on the group you are interested in, which can sometimes be difficult to get to but there are a myriad of opportunities.

Cons

The culture is in flux and not for the better. Management has slowly but surely begun to backburner employee needs in hopes of trimming the fat - but there are a host of high paid under skilled managers that have made ins with the "right" people to keep them where they are.

It really depends on if you want to be a player or a supporter professional

Help desk analyst

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Initial Salary is attractive, free food and work-life balance (you literally work 8 hours at the Help Desk, at sales department is much more)

Cons

-The company culture is fine but the Help Desk role is extremely exhausting and sometimes really unfair once other people evaluate the quality of your answers you provide to clients (you have to speak to 3 clients at the same time in different languages). -Wrongly bad quality grades are often given to your chats and that really affects your promotion within the company. -At the interview they promote the idea of developing an international career although it won't happen that easy. -Once you go to sales there is no higher position to grow in the company, all you can do is moving through the departments selling different products, always in the same hierarchy position.

Achieved steady state

Sales

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Smart and engaged employees, passion for the energy game, always a new initiative or product under development, fascinating world-changing content, great reputation among clients

Cons

still some transition/growing pains as it evolves from a fiery startup to an operating division of a mature company like Bloomberg.
