Jump Trading reviews

Unlimited access to advanced technology toolsets. Flat organizational structure. Rewards and opportunities appear to be tightly aligned with a meritocratic philosophy (this is the 'breath of fresh air' for me. Highly intelligent peer group, with much fewer ego issues than I would have expected. Leadership is in the top 10% in my experience. 'No holds barred' approach to improving productivity. Very well organized support structure for a smaller company.

I found my time at Jump to be really, insanely valuable and would encourage anyone to join. It is an excellent place to be if you are motivated and want to work with really smart, dedicated people who are (mostly) not dicks. Without question this was the best place that I have worked, and I fear that it will remain so going forward. London office space is really nice. Lighting a bit of a problem, but workable. You need to know your stuff (which, if you get through the interview process, is quite likely) and be able to defend your position when you are right; I found admitting and owning it when wrong to be valued. You can expect people to do their jobs, do them well, and go the extra mile. The company seems generally quite willing to work with employees and (given you lay the groundwork with your target group) willing to move people into new roles after they have proven themselves. This is particularly true for people who have been with the firm a few years and shown skill and dedication to the job. It seems to be more true now than it was in the past. The London office is probably one of the best places to work on the planet. (And I'm leaving!)
