Business Outlook
Pros
- Fast-paced, productive, and result-oriented environment - Interesting work: both from a finance perspective (constantly evolving trading strategies, asset classes, etc) and pure technology perspective (solving real scalability and resiliency problems) - Technology is deeply respected and tech culture is long-term focused - Very horizontal. Everyone contributes. Thin "management layer" - Little to no "face time" requirements, as long as you get your work done - Compensation is good for the industry - Free food
Cons
- Path for growth isn't obvious due to very horizontal structure - "Crunch time" isn't common, but can be stressful and time consuming - Can be competitive
