Pros

Great opportunity to learn about the markets, and bloomberg as a whole, which is widely used in the financial markets industry. Great way to network. Benefits include 4 weeks off. Lots of perks in sales, like free lunch when on client visits. Great benefits

Cons

Managers expect you to work long hours, high turnover. HR goes straight to your manager with a complaint and lets them deal with the issue directly, so you really can't complain about anything without your manager having the last say. Need a doctor's note on the 5th sick day you take. Salary is terrible and it won't increase much, maybe 4-5%. You will be penny pinching working for this company.
