Pros

The Company was a startup in the earlier years that enabled the developers to learn multiple stuffs in the backend of the trading system. There were summits twice a year where all the staff gather in a single location and have fun. The company pays well.

Cons

The processes are more important than everything else. Always strict with logging hours to a certain ticket. They promised to do something but failed to keep up with the promise. The cause of the recent downsizing was not clearly communicated and not sure what was the basis of the individuals being laid off. Don’t put all your trust in this company, you might regret it.

Pros

There was no clear or proper explanation of procedures at any stage.Previously, deposits made directly into my account often took a long time, so they suggested using OTC trades instead. Initially, this worked well. However, since the New Year, the situation has changed drastically.I made a large deposit into my account, fully known to the company in advance. Without any prior notice or warning, my funds were suddenly placed on hold. For the past nine days, I have repeatedly tried to get an update or clarification, but there has been no meaningful response. They continue to send the same generic messages, and in recent days they have completely ignored my emails.There is no way to contact them by phone—only by email, which they appear not to monitor. This shows absolute disregard for clients and a highly unprofessional approach.I have never experienced anything like this before. I am already discussing this matter with Financial Ombudsman (FOS) in order to address the irresponsible handling of this situation. Be extremely cautious with this company. They are still holding a significant amount of my funds, with no proper updates provided and a complete lack of respect for their clients

Cons

There are many things that needs to be changed with this company.
