Pros

Bloomberg's a good place to start a career. It's a good atmosphere, there's plenty to learn and you get good exposure to various financial institutions. The key is to leave before you skills become too Bloomberg specific.

Cons

As Bloomberg's traditional business model of selling terminals shrinks, it's being forced to invest in enterprise services. Most of the employees don't have an enterprise services background and that's leading to some tension. Many of the mid-level managers shun innovation in exchange for an easy life. The fixed hours and protocols encourage a lot of wasteful micro-management.
