      Pros

      People here are smart, friendly and helpful. Job is engaging and there is a culture where ideas are respected even if they come from someone new.

      Cons

      Long hours as typical of the industry (50+ hrs for traders), but generally WLB on the better side for trading firms (25 PTO, etc). Can be competitive as everyone is pretty good and the firm is not afraid to cut you if you don't perform.

      Pros

      Good compensation, collaborative environment. Company also seems to aim to be at forefront of new tech such as AI

      Cons

      When HR mgmt is on record stating things like the company shouldn’t hire females anymore, it really makes you wonder how they make decisions on who should fill management positions
