Pros

Point72 attracts a lot of extremely smart & kind people. (Of course there are always exceptions, but that is anywhere!) Many EAs have been here many years which is a good sign, but means little turnover/new opportunities. The firm takes care of employees by offering a wonderful pantry of free food/drinks, a free onsite gym, very nice office space, and by supplying paid medical benefits for you and your family.

Cons

Non-stop, intense environment with expectations that you are always "ON." Vacation time off not competitive/as generous as other benefits.

Pros

The team effort here is nothing like what I've experienced before. If you need direction with regard to a project or question I know 99% of my colleagues would help without hesitation. There is a general lack of pretentiousness among Senior Mgmt that is not only refreshing but eliminates the line between "us" and "them." I find that people here are smart, approachable and genuine. The Firm is open to new ideas in all facets - I see this on a consistent basis. I've met more talented people here than any other place I have worked. Our IT department is on-site and fantastic- they are here to help at the snap of a finger (frustrating experiences at previous Firms make me truly appreciate this). Other pros- casual dress, fabulous coffee (6 different varieties of fresh brew!)

Cons

Fast-paced, high energy most of the time - tired at the end of most days.
