Pros

Employees matter. Opinions and effort matter. If you want to achieve, grow, excel, the system is there for you. The company invests in its people and expects the best. Some might call it pressure, some of us call it encouragement to do our best in everything we do.

Cons

Remembering our roots as we get huge and global. The Bloomberg Way *is* a real thing. As we acquire, hire, and expand, those mantras need to be shared & promoted WHILE taking on new life and legs. This is the root of our brand, and there should be a modicum of understanding & promotion of it in every employee around the world.
