      Pros

      Modern tech stack applied to challenging problems, great work environment and colleagues, investments in employee development with plenty of internal growth opportunities. I've worked in prop trading for 10 years and am glad I landed at Peak6.

      Fun and challenging

      Software engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Everyone in technology has been a joy to work with. The people are smart, collaborative, and helpful. You have a lot of opportunities to expand your skill set and grow. The projects have been very fulfilling and challenging overall. I also notice an effort amongst the senior management to get feedback on how they can improve the workplace which is awesome. Everyone is passionate about what they're working on. You occasionally see a good part of the tech team grinding on their projects late into the evening and this is where all the team bonding and fun shenanigans/jokes happen.

      Cons

      Occasionally we're grinding on our projects late into the evening. Advancement (the path to raises, promotions) isn't straightforward
