Pros

technology training client base generous pantry good bonuses if your manager likes you

Cons

some racist managers that will impede promotions limited room to grow favoritism - if you are jewish and your manager is jewish you get promoted lots of old managers who have been in management for years keep moving across other management roles and never leave, to make room for others to be promoted During reviews especially under the current sales manager they would say wonderful things verbally but not write them down, so they would focus on the negative to make your life miserable. When they want you out they would partner up with HR and others to sabotage your reviews Do yourself a favor and go work elsewhere, it is only good for a couple of years to get experience

Pros

Only a five-hour-per-week time commitment, which is very manageable with my class schedule. Bloomberg provides ideas for challenges and activities to host at my school, so I would not have to come up with everything from scratch. There is flexibility to choose when I table and to tailor the role around my schedule.

Cons

The budget for the program is tight, which is frustrating because advertising to law students is exactly how Bloomberg Law builds a dedicated user base. In my opinion, whoever makes the budget is not seeing the bigger vision. A lot of attorneys may not like Bloomberg Law, use it regularly, or ask their firms to purchase a subscription simply because they were never meaningfully exposed to it in law school. This is exactly why Lexis has taken over in such a big way: its presence and budget are felt at law schools across the country. If Bloomberg wants future attorneys to become loyal users, it needs to invest more seriously in reaching students while they are still learning which legal research platforms they prefer.
