Company ratings
Glassdoor has almost 4,000 reviews for Bloomberg, giving the company the general grade of 3.7 out of 5 stars.
You can tell the company practices what it preaches in hiring because one of the top praises about the company is its diverse environment. They also liked the culture and benefits! What people didn’t like, though, were the extra-long hours and poor work-life balance.
What felony convictions might have a hard time getting hired here?
Does Bloomberg hire felons? Maybe? However, it’s important to understand that, depending on your felony, you might not be eligible for certain opportunities.
Say your felony is related to theft. You will pretty much not be able to work with money.
Or if you have a past history of violence, then you will not be placed in a spot to deal with lots of people in a stressful environment.
Does Bloomberg drug test?
We’re not sure, however not using drugs is always the best bet when looking for a new job.
