Great place to work, a bit hectic

Compliance manager

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

- pay - always something new to learn - good culture, very collaborative and I haven’t seen or experienced any toxicity

Cons

- hectic - everyone thinks their project is the most urgent - needs more people that understand what it means to be a regulated financial services company (as opposed to just a tech company that moves fast and breaks things)
