Pros
good wlb? depending on team though
Cons
many people including traders are stuck supporting legacy systems and issues. be prepared to deal with idiots on a daily basis who have no idea what they are doing and creating issues for somebody else to solve. it is stuck in a negative cycle where it is having difficulty attracting talents and internal talents are leaving at the same time. growth engine is stalling firm is bloated with engineers not contributing to profits and there are even back office roles that are more well paid than front office. They keep hiring more and more when profits are not even growing let’s talk about the compensation: you may never get your target bonus because the firm has never do well for the past few years. each year they’d just tell you : oops sorry we can’t pay you the target bonus because of (you know the reason). you may even get an increased target bonus but it is meaningless in reality because you know why. many are thinking of leaving and those who can leave have already left.
