Optiver reviews

- Toxic leadership , very political. - Too many middle managers - Outdated review system that forces staff to give bad feedback to make themselves look good when calibrated against others - Worklife balance is punished, so much so that people send out scheduled meals late at night and on weekends to look like they work long hours. I'm not joking. - Company has too many middle managers putting in process after process that is slowing down progress. - Started to tighten the purse strings and have become cheap, one of their main pros was all the perks but they're slowly going away - Team leads and management are greedy. Every thought and action is aimed at their next review and promotion and what the marble value is. It's all about the $$$.

- Fast growth creates problems, esp scale problems - Company could be more efficient - Not always clear what to work on - A bit too much of people complaining vs fixing things
