I loved most of my time working at Bloomberg. Super smart people, a very engineering-centric culture. The politics, however, were very different from the west-coast companies I worked at before, though. You might not think that there are much politics where you work, but that just means you are so familiar with the politics that you conform to them without even thinking about it.

But every organization has its sacred cows, and no matter where you work, if you happen to get yourself into a situation where in order for you to be right, your bosses have to be wrong, it's game over.
