Cool hybrid of tech company / finance company

Software engineer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

- Compensation and benefits are excellent - Tech side of things feels like a tech company - Attending conferences / training is encouraged - Friday lunches catered, and an onsite barista at Chicago office!

Cons

- Office lacks common areas, and so there's an eat-lunch-at-desk culture that seems hard to change - There's a lack of good gyms or cafes in the area around 600 W Chicago

Great Company, Great People

Algorithmic trader

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Cutting-edge technology, top notch trading/quant/technology talent, flat management structure, great learning experience, and extremely competitive compensation without a ridiculous bonus deferral program (that is, there exists a bonus deferral program, but a reasonable one)

Cons

Office building is a bit old and dark and cold, and there aren't too many perks besides complementary beverages and fruits; you'll be a bit disappointed if you come from a Silicon Valley-like environment, where employer takes care of everything in your life
