No career growth there
Software Development Engineer • Former Employee
New York, New York, United States
July 21, 2014
Pros: Good salary for new graduates.
Cons: There is no career growth. Every team works on two to three functions. People's knowledge of finance is limited to a small area, so it will be very hard to get a job from other finance companies like an investment bank or hedge fund if you stay at Bloomberg for too long.
The tech Bloomberg uses is very old. It is extremely difficult to find a job in a high-tech company if you stay at Bloomberg for more than three years.
