One of the better quant hedge funds to work for

Quantitative researcher

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Cubist has a quant-friendly and research oriented culture, and is virtually isolated from long/short business. The management, technology and data teams are supportive. It has solid infrastructure with global foot prints. The business overall is mature and stable. Turnover is ok, and many other major quant funds have worse turnover. If some PM jumps ship and abandon his crew, Cubist is willing to keep the talents and help them to find positions internally. The benefits/401K are also very generous. They are building the quant business for long term, and is expanding it.

Cons

Not much to complain.
