Pros

Fast-paced work, nice offices with free food and interesting coworkers. You are never bored working at Bloomberg. Benefits are excellent, including maternity leave.

Cons

10-hour days. If you have a family, you won’t be seeing them much. Very macho culture. They operate so fast they don’t give much room to think strategically. So you feel like you’re on a treadmill. Particularly difficult place for women, who are far outnumbered by men. They give you a great maternity leave but your manager judges you for taking it. Depending on the department you won’t see any women in authority, which is extremely discouraging.
