This memo is factually inaccurate. Bloomberg peer @hellgatenyc.com continues to cover 100% of employees' healthcare premiums, as any company with sufficient revenue should until the day this country recognizes that health care is a human right.

'Bloomberg’s approach of not asking employees to contribute to healthcare costs lasted longer than any of our peers,' the company told employees."
