PEAK6 - A terrific place to work

Anonymous employee

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

A dynamic place to work, PEAK6 is a fast paced, high energy place. Beautiful facilities, progressive technology, small business perks (such as a fully stocked fridge and endless snacks in the kitchen) with the benefits package of a large enterprise (phenomenal health care, great pay and bonus structure, matching 401K, tuition reimbursement, etc.) and great growth potential.

Cons

PEAK6 is a numbers driven organization which expects greatness from its people. At times, the great efforts of many to maintain highly available systems goes unrecognized.

Great potential.. HORRIBLE CULTRE of gas-lighting and fear

Director

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

-Some of the most agile, engaged professionals I've met -Annual party was great

Cons

-CEOs create an atmosphere of belittling and fear. There is some clear anxiety issues that manifest themselves in attacks, reacting before understanding and an environment of crabs in barrel. Leadership needs leadership development desperately. No executive of color has made it past 2 years. None. Zero.

Great employees… underdeveloped management

Anonymous

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Company is sincerely trying to innovate. Acquisitions of new companies are smart and innovative. Beautiful office

Cons

Underdeveloped management creates incompetent culture. This dumbs down the ideas that come from “here’s a new approach” to “this won’t be nitpicked by Jenny’s insecurities”
