Pros

Office Great salary Benefits - pension, private medical insurance, etc.. External activities Free tickets to events and places. HR is really nice and helpful.

Cons

Old technologies Isolated people Too many meetings, sometimes there are meetings in order to schedule more meetings. Management is really bad, don't have a clue what's going on. Bottom line, software engineers- run away

Pros

Bloomberg is an exciting place to work. The company culture is great. The pay is great. The benefits are great. The office is amazing. The technology is being rapidly updated. Some of the smartest people I know still work there. There is lots of talent in this company! Plenty of training opportunities. Generous vacation. Generous maternity leave. Diversity.

Cons

Once you quit, you cannot go back. You may get used to a lot of things that are Bloomberg specific and are not used elsewhere. Flexible work and remote work is hard to arrange. Limited number of offices (if you are in tech you have a choice only between NYC and London)

Pros

Great benefits, but that's it.

Cons

Very little room for personality. Very much like a high school popularity contest, in the sense if you aren't considered a "cool" person you are isolated with very little help or contribution. Very stuffy working environment.
