Pros

At the moment… none compared to other funds: XTX, HRT, Jane Street, Citadel, MWAM. Salary gets good if you stick around for 5/6 years, but also who wants to stay there for 5/6 years when you get much higher salaries elsewhere?

Cons

Very hierarchical place. The only career progression that makes sense is in management, but there are way too many managers. Senior management uses engineers like pawns. There is a reason why this company has 3.5 on glassdoor😅 (even with the fake reviews of HR).

Pros

Good compensation compared to average software engineering jobs in London. Comfortable work-life balance. Some interesting projects going on.

Cons

The company aimed to grow in size till a few years ago but now it looks like it is aiming to shrink down to some extent, and thus, we now have occasional layoffs. It also has too many middle managers and this sometimes drives them towards useless office politics.
