Pros

* There are always tons of interesting new problems to work on, and employees are given a lot of freedom to work on the ones they feel passionately about. * New hires are trusted with a lot of responsibility very quickly. * If you do well, you are compensated well.

Cons

* People (including management) often have a very short term focus. * A lot of the analysis done is anecdote driven. Sometimes there is a lack of properly quantitative methods. * Hours are long, but they aren't too bad given the industry. And working a lot is not always a problem if the work is enjoyable.

Pros

Free catered lunch, extremely smart coworkers, happy hour every Friday, good hours, fun events every week, very nice free corporate housing. I loved the collaborative culture at IMC and learned a lot at the fast paced environment. Everyone was very friendly and I learned a lot, there was a strong focus on letting us enjoy the summer while learning a lot! Definitely the opposite of the typical long hours and extremely cutthroat financial firm feel that I expected. I spent around 40 to 50 hours a week at work which is a very solid work life balance.

Cons

Very smart colleagues requires you to put out your best work. Expect to go through a lot of code reviews before your code is up to par and can be pushed into production (very fast production cycle).
