Pros

Very relaxed, engineering-focused culture. The product is the software, that's what makes the money (as in literally *all* of the revenue), and the software engineers are treated accordingly.

Cons

Lots of new grads go to Bloomberg and stay there, there is less knowledge of how other companies do things than there should be.
