Pros

There are a lot of resources if you need them - there's a department for everything. If you need support from business development, HR, employment services, they will listen. The firm is focused on mentoring and building long term relationships, as evidenced by their Launchpoint and Academy program.

Cons

It can sometimes be overwhelming how many resources there are and where to find them.

Pros

I work for Cubist (Point72's quant arm). I joined the company as a junior research analyst after getting my Ph.D. - People here are extremely helpful and talented. You would get help whenever you need it, from your manager, mentor, colleague, and even the CEO, which is especially important to a junior person like me. - You got chances to do interesting projects that are at the core of the trading business. If you love finance research, this is the place to go - the environment is similar to academia; plus, you can see the real impact of your research. - Employee benefits are awesome. You get free insurance for the family - medical, dental, and vision.

Cons

To be honest, I have nothing to complain about. It has been 1.5 years, and never have I regretted my decision since I joined the firm.

Pros

Point72 is a very high performing place but everyone is very supportive and respectful of each other. Has much more of a "start-up" feel but with all the resources and know-how.

Cons

The DEI, particularly the diversity aspect, is very lackluster. Although the firm is very inclusive and works hard to champion equity, there is definitely more that can be done to create a more diverse population.
