Business Outlook
Pros
Good benefits and Salary. Interesting projects building and enhancing trading systems which manage billions of dollars. On the surface the culture is friendly with frequent opportunities for community outreach and decent work/life balance depending on the department. In my experience the technology department has collaborative and friendly people.
Cons
Exposure to PMs (Portfolio Managers) and working on trading systems can be a blessing and a curse. It is exciting and rewarding when things are going well, but the experience can quickly turn toxic when something goes wrong. Fast passed and chaotic requirements from the business can lead to a stressful and reactive software engineering experience.
