Rosedale's Job-Trainees payed an exciting visit to Bloomberg News. We liked the modern Asian-inspired aesthetic, from the "rock" formations in the lobby to the fish tanks, art installations, and glass conference rooms. We could see people having important meetings right before our eyes. Our tour guide, Andrew, explained that Bloomberg's design reflects the company's values of transparency and openness. He led us down into the television studios so that we could see an actual taping and showed us a visual timeline of the Bloomberg terminal. Perhaps we didn't completely understand what the terminals actually do, but it was impressive nonetheless. Above the company are condos where someone named Beyonce and someone named Jay-Z live. Bloomberg provides free food to all of its employees and we witnessed many people walking by with what looked like Chinese noodle bowls. If you lived in one of the above condos and were employed by Bloomberg and didn't attend any kind of religious services, it would be possible to work a full week without ever leaving the building. Possibly longer. You wouldn't even miss the sun because of all the windows. There are many compelling reasons to work at a company like Bloomberg besides having direct access to sunlight. What do you think they are?
