Pros

Optiver offers an incredible environment for growth, with smart colleagues, a strong focus on collaboration, and a culture that values ownership and impact. The compensation is competitive, the benefits are excellent, and the company supports continuous learning and innovation.

Cons

The pace can be intense, and expectations are high. It's not a place for those who prefer a slow or highly structured corporate environment.
