Pros

Your peers are great to work with. Fun, like minded group. The perks they offer are great and on par with a google/meta. The pay is competitive

Cons

Management is poor within IT specifically but around the company the management lacks compared to other more established placed. Hours can be long, nights and weekends can be typical during periods of the year. No clear path to grow your career in IT here. Unclear how work gets distributed with some people working on fun and interesting projects and others stuck monitoring the environment and doing boring/repetitive tasks.

Pros

Incredible compensation for software engineers, especially relative to large tech companies. Fantastic culture - feels like working for a tech company.

Cons

Performance process is pretty opaque (mostly people don’t mind because the pay numbers that come out of it are so high). Hours are on the longer side for tech (9 hour days are standard), but this is short for a trading company.
