Pros

Good People. The people are young, vibrant and outgoing. There is free food. Very transparent company. Class participation is part of the grade. There are many ways to do this, including coming to class, raising questions in class, joining in class discussions and responding to questions raised during class. Attendance is not explicitly recorded for the class or the section, but it constitutes a crucial learning experience for the class. In class discussions, our collective goal will be to unravel the facts of the case and explore a variety of reasonable approaches and solutions. Grades are assigned on the basis of class participation that contributes to this process. Emphasis is not on the duration of your “air time” or on getting the “right” solution (typically, there is no “right” solution). Rather, I will be looking for summaries of case facts, well reasoned view points, constructive questions, or other relevant insights that enrich the discussion. Please note that during class

Cons

Pay isn't that great. The fact that it is so transparent can be a negative for some people

Pros

Opportunities to do lots of work with data and finance to apply knowledge in both programming and Subject-Matter Expertise (SME). Excellent Work-Life Balance (WLB) and extremely welcoming culture. You can reach out to anyone for help or just to talk, and they will get back to you (although management does require more scheduling in advance). Generous compensation (good wage) and benefits, including housing for interns. If you heard the rumors that the Bloomberg Princeton office has a great Bloomberg Pantry (read: company-provided breakfast and lunch), the rumors are true.

Cons

Not the place for those looking for cutting-edge AI. The company is not as fast with AI as the company prioritizes reliability and accuracy above all, and much of AI is not at an acceptable threshold for management to be willing to take that risk with financial data (at least in 2026). You may get a project to automate menial processes, which is really cool, but that tends to involve actually doing the menial processes, which feels unproductive. Princeton office is good but New York is considered preferable. Coworkers are not very reachable outside of work hours. Compensation is low in Data compared to Software Engineers.
