Pros

Every day I come into the office excited to trade with my team and face any new challenges. Our systems are constantly evolving to stay ahead of the pack and being part of this process is a thrill

Cons

As the office is getting bigger its harder to get to know everyone but that's going to happen to any company that grows like Optiver!

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
