      Great to hear! I last used your product in ~2012 and enjoyed it. Unfortunately, my last few companies have always balked at the yearly fees so haven’t had the chance to see what’s changed since then. Anyway, glad to hear you made the best decision for you and your family!

    I’m not sure what Splunk’s tech is like but I’ve heard some horror stories w/ Bloomberg’s infra. As someone who moved from Denver to NYC for work/family, don’t do it unless you’re really ready to give up the lifestyle.

  • The only reason to take a job at Bloomberg is if you’re unemployed or you just wanna work 15 hours a week. Low TC, great WLB
