Pros

Working with cutting edge technology on challenging projects. Never being complacent and always being on your toes. Customers Mean Everything!

Cons

Too much politics and favoritism. People are more interested in oneupmanship than actually getting any work done. Hard work should be recognized and rewarded appropriately.

Pros

* Strong IT shop * Willing to invest in IT Infrastructure * Getting better on providing good working facilities and amenities * Good chance to learn about the trading environment * Only minimal travel required * Good ability to move around laterally (sometimes even vertically) * Not many staff reductions / layoffs * Solid Senior Management * On-site fitness facility

Cons

* Work / Life balance can be challenging at times. Depending on your group / role, there may be frequent Saturday work. * Crazy work pace at times. Many high priority projects * Some counter-productive employees seem to be able to survive and remain employed * Not a major con, but you will see a good amount of nepotism * Raises were mostly flat last couple of years.

Pros

Competitive salary good benefits pension package employee stock purchase plan

Cons

managers are promoted because they are great at their jobs and have industry expertise however, they receive no guidance on how to treat the staff they are responsible for. Huge learning curve in the futures industry when you are coming out of college. There is very little formal training.
