Vantaggi
- Decent pay, especially when you first start - Some level of job stability compared to other media owners - Lots of perks (free snacks and things - not the kind that constitute company culture)
Svantaggi
- The big one is the return to the office. Bloomberg is making all employees come in for 4 days a week. Never mind that many of us are more productive when working from home, never mind that the office is so big it takes 10 minutes just to get a coffee and another 10 to go to the bathroom, never mind that the office has so few meeting rooms it's impossible to get a private space for client calls and meetings, never mind that employees are happier and healthier when they don't have to get up at the crack of dawn to commute into an office, never mind that neurodivergent colleagues struggle to concentrate with the noise and lights of the office environment, never mind that there's a cost of living crisis and it costs thousands extra per year to travel in and out, never mind that the planet's on fire and commuting causes more emissions even though Bloomberg supposedly cares so much about climate change. They just want us in the office! And the worst thing is, they won't even be honest about why. As a consequence, a lot of us are looking for other jobs - which I suspect is the goal. - It's also a very flat structure so there isn't much chance of progression - A lot of middle management have been hanging around for 5, 10, 15 or even 20 years. They do nothing and leave the work to everyone else, whilst openly hoping for a redundancy payout.
