Nice people, but hard to grow as an IC
People are generally very nice and supportive.
Chill, the London office is pretty good. Compensation for a recent grad is reasonable.
There are a reasonable amount of learning opportunities for a new grad.
Legacy tech everywhere. If you are a techie, then you won't be very satisfied in this place, as there's not a lot of hard-core tech for you to work on. Being on the bleeding edge tech-wise is never Bloomberg's priority, despite them trying hard to convince you of a strong engineering culture.
To go far and move fast, you need to invest in good tech infrastructure. Stop using "but we need to create business value now" as an excuse to get away from it.

Bloomberg LP Interview Experiences

The first step was a technical interview. I was asked basic software engineering questions and also had a live coding session. The interviewer had a British accent, which was a little difficult for me to understand at the time.

The interview process begins with multiple LeetCode-style medium questions, typically spanning the first two rounds. This is followed by a system design discussion, and then a behavioral interview. The first interview has only one interviewer. Subse

I was asked a variation of the LeetCode question Invalid Transactions. I solved it in the end in time as well, but I guess they wanted better because I didn’t get through to the next stage.
