Agile prime brokerage - a home for technical innovation, aspirational business goals and a flexible work environment
Pros
Clear Street is a relatively new, agile and forward-looking prime brokerage with a focus on hiring skilled and innovative technical engineers to build best in class systems to support experienced operations staff, which will allow the firm to be highly competitive in the market in the coming years as new products are added. The company has a compact employee base which is tight-knit and well-integrated both horizontally and vertically. They are willing to provide very competitive compensation for people with the right skills to drive the firm forward according to the overall vision. The technology is mostly newer and mostly proprietary allowing for an effective CI/CD environment.
Cons
Currently continuing the general Wall Street theme of being a highly male-populated environment particularly in management roles. Would recommend attempting to balance this with future hiring strategy geared towards hiring more women. POC diversity level seems better than gender diversity.
