      Business Outlook

      Pros

      World Class connectivity and toolchain Results oriented focus Work is not repetitive Always new projects Skilled co-workers

      Cons

      This is not an environment where someone tells you what to do every day. This can lead to a bit of confusion for earlier part of career about what is expected.

      Phenomenal environment for the ambitious and driven

      Anonymous employee
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      -Entrepreneurial environment that encourages new ideas and allows one to rapidly assume meaningful responsibility -Focus on business expansion opens ample opportunities for personal growth and achievement -Flat structure and emphasis on teamwork makes management extremely accessible and helpful -Excellent amenities, including a spacious office overlooking Bryant Park, catered lunch and snacks, weekly massages, company trips, happy hours, etc. -Unique mix of tenures - new joiners often find themselves learning from colleagues who have been with the firm for years (some since its founding!)

      Cons

      -Rapid growth and focus on new sources of value trades off with efficiency, generating a significant operational workload and consuming resources which could otherwise be spent on innovation -Similarly, project-level coordination between teams can take a backseat to driving forward progress, resulting in otherwise-avoidable inefficiencies and surprises -Fixed compensation is - while still quite comfortable - on the lower end for competitors of the same caliber (especially for traders) -The performance evaluation process (and how it ties into variable compensation) can be opaque

      Trader Program

      Junior trader
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Excellent culture Very good mentor in charge of program

      Cons

      Company has grown to the level that 40-60% of the Graduate traders hired will stay with the company after the first 6 months. Still that is a better percentage that other similar high frequency trading firms.
