Pros

Nice office. People on my team are quite competent. Free snacks and drinks. Total compensation is pretty good. The company is rapidly growing recently. Good place to work for programmers.

Cons

Work/life balance is not very good on my team: often people work at least 10 hours a day. Priority on my project is about making something for delivery rather than correct code. In the future maintenance would be a problem. Company is too relying on the arcane terminal to run their internal operations.

Pros

great place to obtain licensing and gain experience and knowledge and about the markets. also provides huge opportunity to develop relationships within the investment community.

Cons

compensation could be improved, not greatly impacted by individual performance and still relative to peer performance. platform is not up to speed with current technology and is playing "catch-up" with the rest of the market.
