Pros

Bloomberg's culture is fantastic. Really enjoyed my time in Sales. Training provided at Analytics department was put to good use when communicating ideas with clients.

Cons

Too much dictatorship from top management which suppressed creativity. Sales people rely too heavily on policies set out and slowly become cookie cutters..

Pros

Pays well. Stable. Sponsors visas. Nice sinecure for the unambitious.

Cons

This place is full of h1b visa holders. They work 100 hour weeks, and if you don't do the same, you will be toast. They create a culture of corruption and patronage similar to any crony-capitalist third-world country, but on a higher pay scale. You are a slave and your ideas are not valued, because your success is a threat to your boss. There is a chain of 12 levels of hierarchy here. Endless politics. The better you are, the worse your life will be.

Pros

* Really good name in the industry * People are very nice * Yeah, the pantry ;) * Keep up with the most updated news. * Overall great office atmosphere

Cons

* There is really not much room of development (career-wise and skills-wise) for temp, it does look good on the CV though. But somehow one must take into account of their future career development, try to look for a chance to become a perm. * Seriously underpaid (as a temp, which is expected I suppose)
