Great projects and fantastic people

Pros

I worked as an intern over the summer. I really enjoyed the freedom I was given to explore my own designs and solutions. My projects were quite open-ended and fun to tackle and I gained a lot of experience that will be useful later on. At work, the people at Jump are very kind and technically talented; I learned a lot from my mentors. After work, I had a great time with the other interns, and the company sponsored many fun intern events. I thoroughly enjoyed my ten weeks - both at work and outside of work.

Cons

I have no cons at this time.

Pros

Autonomy, smart people, interesting problems. Avoids some of the drama of other financial trading firms, owners have patience with new strategies.

Cons

There is a definite power-law for compensation, and inefficient "price-discovery" is required to ensure you're at market rate. Technical acumen of staff varies, from world-class to not so much, but headed in the right direction.

Pros

Good Technology, Fast Infrastructure, Very Nice Senior Management

Cons

There's a ton of variance in outcomes for traders, and a lot of that can be explained by what team you join and who your manager is.
