      Pros

      Compensation linked to your performance number and rules are very clear Flat structure with less politics Freedom to explore / try new things Large organization and Great support from other teams, e.g. IT, data, business etc

      Cons

      Cubist Systematic Strategies

      CEO approval

      Pros

      Efficient organization and management. Flat structure that top management at Cubist is accessible by anyone. Serious work, no nonsense talking, "show me the result" attitude. One of the top quant shops out there for serious researchers and developers.

      Cons

      Hours can be long due to the nature of the (global market) business.

      Great Experience so far (Cubist)

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Competitive healthcare, 401k, etc. Work/life balance is important, and taking a two week vacation is acceptable. Working from home is normal if the circumstances allow. Great visibility with upper management (had beers with CEO within 1 month of joining). Interesting and exciting work I've worked in finance for a long time. Very few firms in the industry care about personal growth or advancement. This seems to be different across P72 in general. Internal advancement/transfers happen regularly. Having multiple roles here is the norm not the exception.

      Cons

      It can be frantic here. There's a lot going on and everyone is busy. Most give 110%; that's the expectation. This is fine for me, because that's who I am. But it may be overwhelming to some.
