Pros

decent salary, but that is all.

Cons

Everyone knows that how coronavirus can hurt people if they are unluckily infected. Some patients got permanent damage to their bodies and almost 200,000 people have died in US. BUT, this company is forcing employees to go back to office!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We take our employees’ health and safety seriously and we want to clarify the content reflected in this post. Given our critical role in the capital markets, our businesses (Citadel and Citadel Securities) were designated as essential businesses and accordingly, our offices remained available for employees. We have invested and continue to invest significant resources in a number of health and safety protocols as part of maintaining office availability throughout this period. Over recent months, while individual circumstances have certainly varied, many colleagues have seen some normalcy return in their lives (e.g. schools back in session). As a result, they have been eager to interact with their colleagues in person and we have increased onsite access for them. If you have further concerns, you should feel free to raise them directly with HR, your business unit COO, or the firm’s COO.
