Business Outlook

Pros

Decent compensation. Many interesting perks like free admission to museums, annual picnic. The company culture is on the lay-back side as a financial company. This should be an ideal "last job" of anyone.

Cons

The technology used in Bloomberg is pretty boring. In my group we use a little bit of everything, and the problems we work on are usually pretty shallow from a technology point of view.

Pros

Worked from 2000~2007. Highly technological company. Efficient HR dept. Compensation is a little below the market. But not as much pressure as Wall St firms. No long hours and full benefits. And free employee kichen! :)

Cons

Compensation is a little below the market.
