Pros

I come from their ITG side of business(Analytics) which still operates as separate entity and that has just zero pros. Virtu as an organization is fast paced, easy going. If you want to make difference you get chance to drive initiative. Perks during pandemic were great. I felt they cared for employee during that time.

Cons

Their Analytic business lacks vision. Neither they manage to increase revenue in last 5 year nor motivation of employees. It's a sinking ship. Technology and Virtu(Analytics) are 2 side of earth's pole never meant to meet. Tech understanding is so low that most of managers and team members don't have idea on version control using Git or having a CI/CD pipeline. Leaders are old school and still operate on technology which are obsolete 10 years back. No care on career growth of employees. Managers keep promising on taking care of their employee but Lay off's can happen on any day of the year. Virtu as an organization is always on look out for lay off's almost every quarter. Working hours are long and pay is below market.
