Pros

Bloomberg generally looks after its employees - free food, exciting offices and not stingy on the perks. Colleagues tend to help each out and the culture that has been built makes you feel part of something bigger. Strict 8-6 working hours is cool but a bit weird when every day at 7:59 and 6:01 there is a huge crowd at the doors looking to enter/leave the building.

Cons

You are generally expected to do whatever the company needs at the time, which makes for depressing career prospects if you don't love sales and the prospect of moving around (including to regional offices). Though the company as a whole has a good vibe, there are some areas that are absolutely terrible. London ADSK was easily the worst experience of my working career. Even though you're not expected to stay in that kind of help desk role forever, when your only out is basically sales (another department that leaves a lot to be desired) you don't have much choice but to take advantage of the unlimited snacks, strict 8-6 hours and switch off after work and look for another job.

Very bureaucratic, very strict company culture and can be stagnant with opportunities to grow.
