Pros

I enjoyed working at Jump because of the working environment. I don't think anyone can work for a more laid back and friendly environment. There is room for advancement but you would have to create that path on you own. The management is great!!.

Cons

I do not have any Cons as to my employment with Jump. I would definitely work there again if given the opportunity.

Pros

Jump has world-class HFT infrastructure, generous compensation, and a meritocratic culture. They are high volume participants in many markets and are especially big players in futures. The depth of industry experience and the quality of in-house development are huge advantages at Jump. I worked at Jump for close to 6 years, left on good terms, and always felt that I was treated very well.

Cons

Trading teams at Jump operate largely independently of each other. This increases personal accountability and the motivation to generate new sources of P&L, but it comes at the expense of knowledge-sharing between groups.
