I would rank it quite close to The worst company to work for tech wise. I've worked for a bit as a contract worker in their Eikon/Elektron product division(the Bloomberg equivalent).

They have "everything": silos, fiefdoms. Systems team that operated as if the devops model never happened. A CTO they hired @~2015/2016 that had no experience in tech whatsoever. A board which instituted and instructed a cost cutting policy by,for e.g. , but not limited to outsourcing every job possible with little to no tradeoff on quality of engineering. And this was way before AI was a thing.

This left staff engineers with no bargaining power to hire engineers to write good systems.

If you are considering a job there, I would recommend doing some due diligence.
