Pros
Some nice perks like snacks, breakfast + lunch, stocked bar, annual company trip, and game room. If you're working with under the right lead and have decent co-workers you might make valuable contributions and learn something along the way.
Cons
These shiny perks DO NOT make up for the incredibly toxic culture. There are some MASSIVE ego's running the show. Massive structural changes in the past year including the co-CEO, senior MD, and several senior heads resigning resulted in a power grab for those who remain. Changes were seen across the board in nearly all departments and teams, the company is unrecognizable compared to what it was a few years back. There is little direction, it is an absolute 'everyone for themselves' type of culture. Flow Traders suffered from the worst case of 'start-ups growing pains' I've seen or heard of. On top of this, penny-pinching upper management will rarely give out raises or bonuses regardless of how hard you work and how much you contribute. This appears reinforced with nonsensical and unreasonable workload that do not have obvious benefits for the company on those at the bottom of the chain. Completing a job does NOT mean you are compensated (bonus or otherwise)! At the end, management will claim credit and collect their chunk of the pie at the end of the year. Consider this a warning for all those considering joining the firm, there are plenty of competitors that will give you a fair and honest chance with competitive pay. Don't waste your time here.
