      Good for some positions, not for others.

      Pros

      The company is solid and growing. The sales and trading groups have good salaries, bonuses, and recognition.

      Cons

      However, the support organizations like IT, office admin, etc. Lack the recognition, raises, and appreciation. Choose a company that values the support groups.

      Pros

      Good colleagues mostly, good transport links

      Cons

      One of the reviews here said that Dimensional treats employees like family. Ye right... if you want to talk about a family, it was more like the Addams family. Seriously. They're creepy and they're kooky, Mysterious and spooky, They're all together ooky, The Addams Family. Sometimes it was nearly as bad as the Manson family since it was boardering on a cult. Not kidding. It was like a cult.

      Pros

      Great work environment, in a cool location on the beach in Santa Monica CA. Really nice people, very cool work environment. Lots of effort put into employee development

      Cons

      Lots of grunt work in VBA and SQL, skills are not very transferable. The work is not terribly interesting although the overarching strategies are. The compensation is not that competitive. This is partially offset by a great work life balance.
