Good place to work

Senior quantitative analyst

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Strong group of quants, smart interesting people, interesting work, lots of room to learn new things (although not much time to do it). This is a great place to start.

Cons

No positions in the company means you cannot grow careerwise. Salary also peaks off at some point and stops growing. Lots depends on the manager as well.

Great atmosphere. Smart people. Free food :) Overall Bloomberg is a great place to work at. The company does very well even in hard times.

Working from home is really an issue. The company wide policy is that it is allowed but certain managers dont allow it in their teams.

Senior software engineer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Open communication, flexible work environment on the software development side. Great offices and very good perks. Very fair (good) compensation. Startup like approach to handling new projects.

Cons

The work hours are fairly inflexible. Working from home is very much discouraged. The employee time tracking system is fairly annoying and there's no flexibility on the amount of holidays you take.
