Pros

When I came to this company, I noticed that its Glassdoor review was high for the trading industry. After some time working here and skeptically wondering if it was rightfully deserved, I can say that it truly is. IMC has the best culture I have seen at any of the trading firms I've talked to. A strong culture says a lot in an industry known to be especially competitive and cut-throat, and where tenures tend to be short. People are smart and professional. You won't be disappointed by your colleagues, and management shoots it straight. This is one of the best places to work in the trading industry.

Cons

By trading firm standards, it is a large company. While it tries its best to stay nimble, it has more layers than smaller firms. It's not as entrepreneurial as a small prop shop. It is though much smaller and less bureaucratic than workings for the FANGs of the tech world.

Pros

I've been with IMC for almost 10 years. I love it so far. Right from the start, you'll be given a lot of responsibility. The flat structure of the organization makes it easy to get your point across and work effectively. Overall, I found it a very rewarding job. You end up working with extremely intelligent and enthusiastic people who are open to debate. This makes work fun. I've worked on a wide range of projects and the versatility of topics to work on is great. Trading moves at a rapid pace and so does IMC. The work/life balance is excellent though. There are frequent opportunities to visit other offices in Amsterdam or Sydney, or even transfer for a while. Next to this, you can get all the gear you would ever need to do your job, from top of the range macbooks to many 30" monitors. We get some great benefits: free breakfast and lunches, on-site massage therapists, frequent company outings and a yearly company weekends, next to the more standard 401k match, health and dental insurance, etc.

Cons

Live at IMC can be fast paced, so you do not always get the time to take care of every detail. Being good at time management and prioritization is very helpful
