Not the company it used to be
May 4, 2023 - Anonymous Employee in New York, NYRecommendCEO ApprovalBusiness OutlookPros
Incredibly smart and kind colleagues, lots of perks (especially for NYCers).
Cons
As Mike steps back the bureaucracy is gradually eating away at everything that made this company special. I used to feel valued and empowered to make a difference - in the end, I was just a cog. I get the RTO policy, and that’s 100% the company’s right, but it would have been nice if someone in HR or management actually gave a fig when I had to give up a job and team I loved to take care of my family. No ‘thanks for a decade of hard work’, no ‘sorry it turned out this way’, no ‘good luck with your family issues’ - virtually no official communication at all, not even an exit interview. If it weren’t for my immediate supervisors I would have felt like so much garbage dumped at the curb. So incredibly disappointing from a place I once cared about so deeply.

Toxic leadership in some departments
Jun 7, 2023 - Anonymous Employee in New York, NYRecommendCEO ApprovalBusiness OutlookPros
Good health insurance and salary

Some departments are run by leaders that are constantly targeting and talking people down. Mental harassment and bullying is constantly looked over. Bonus is not good and performance evaluation process is not followed consistently amongst all employees.

Trim bad actors in middle management and focus on producers
May 18, 2023 - Product Manager in New York, NYRecommendCEO ApprovalBusiness OutlookPros
Bbg is a machine. You are a cog, benefits include premium healthcare, access to philanthropy/network/offices worldwide, growth opportunities and the ability to learn everything from customer service, news production to building products.
Cons
Bbg is a machine. You are a cog. Moving up longitudinally will be difficult, there is a surplus of unproductive middle managers who can hinder career growth and be more concerned with asserting dominance over others vs collaboration and producing good work.
