Pros

Company’s main business in inter dealer brokerage. It’s a great place to learn the entire brokerage system.

Cons

Poor healthcare insurance. Full of micro managers who keeps an eye on your desktop while you work. Bearish management style creates insecurity and untrustworthy environment. Poor software management process, expect to work long hours and “I want” instructions from managers to release code changes almost every week. Not a good place if you are looking for work life balance, working from home is highly discouraged and talked about in meetings. Poor bonus policies.
