Pros

Somewhere to work as a backup plan between jobs. Free toilet paper. Free snacks. Free training how to be a better Bloomberg employee.

Cons

Stacked ranking Stacked ranking destroys a culture. Period. Speaking teamwork is lipservic, but really there are no teams or in other words you are a team of one since stacked ranking. Best to the hard-working employees trapped there with no place else to go. B and C bosses, which means if you are an A player you will not be promoted as that would upend the B and C bosses. True or I couldn't say it.

Pros

Opportunities to do lots of work with data and finance to apply knowledge in both programming and Subject-Matter Expertise (SME). Excellent Work-Life Balance (WLB) and extremely welcoming culture. You can reach out to anyone for help or just to talk, and they will get back to you (although management does require more scheduling in advance). Generous compensation (good wage) and benefits, including housing for interns. If you heard the rumors that the Bloomberg Princeton office has a great Bloomberg Pantry (read: company-provided breakfast and lunch), the rumors are true.

Cons

Not the place for those looking for cutting-edge AI. The company is not as fast with AI as the company prioritizes reliability and accuracy above all, and much of AI is not at an acceptable threshold for management to be willing to take that risk with financial data (at least in 2026). You may get a project to automate menial processes, which is really cool, but that tends to involve actually doing the menial processes, which feels unproductive. Princeton office is good but New York is considered preferable. Coworkers are not very reachable outside of work hours. Compensation is low in Data compared to Software Engineers.
