Pros

Good pay, transparent payment (you get marbles which is directly correlated with the company's overall performance across offices), all teams share the profit, there is no internal competition between teams

Cons

High firing rate, relatively hard to get promoted to senior positions, not a lot of stuff you learn here is transferable

Pros

1. Amazing history of developing systems and solving problems, you touch and own a lot of projects that were really creative and tell a story 2. Interesting work and its diversity, from being close to research and trading to being a full systems developer 3. Amazing people and lack of documentation makes you keep talking to them a lot and learning from them directly. 4. Great pay, perks like free food, great office outings, etc.

Cons

1. Possibly longer work hours 2. Some lock in to Optiver specific technology and setup
