Bloomberg LP Work Experiences
- 1.0Backwards technology, unambitious employeesSoftware Engineer • Former EmployeeNew York, New York, United StatesOctober 20, 2011Pros: The pay and the name.Cons: Very mediocre employees, no guts. This isn't sell-side, this isn't buy-side. It's just back-office. A lot of churn for new employees in the company. The lifers there obviously are just clocking the hours. Also, I might add, way too many Indians and Asians in the technology area. Hard to get communication through their thick accents sometimes.
- 5.0Great 1st jobSoftware Engineer • Current EmployeeNew York, New York, United StatesJanuary 18, 2021Pros: Good WLB, starting pay, and training class.Cons: Lack of documentation for a lot of the code.
- 4.0Good Pay, Bad Management VibeSenior Software Engineer • Current EmployeeNew York, New York, United StatesMarch 13, 2024Pros: Interesting work Perks * Food * SalaryCons: Bad management. Biased. Your colleagues report the manager regarding the number of desk hours, so you feel watched. Harsh feedback: Be careful about indirect feedback that may come as harsh and tough ones in the future.
