Vantaggi
Nicer to be employed than unemployed.
Svantaggi
Knowing the employee turnover and general opinions of employees (that you hear in the office), I don't understand who writes these 4-5 star reviews? Bloomberg HR maybe? My recollection is that pretty much everybody plans on leaving when the first opportunity comes, as the company is rotten to the core. The managers are either young pets, who are brown nosing the seniors, or mediocre "Tony Middle Level Manager"s, who have stayed at Bloomberg since 1986, as they are too incompetent to get a job anywhere else. In London, the turnover is the highest, and in Princeton some people stay longer as they are less other opportunities around. Bloomberg is not the first choice for anybody! People work at Bloomberg only because they have to.
