Pros

Great benefits, competitive salary, good opportunity for growth.

Cons

Management does not team build, even though the company will provide team building classes and support, the management teams go unchecked and only see other managers as team members not the group that works under them. this leads to lots of unsatisfied employees and unresolved issues within teams.

Pros

- Friendly working environment. - Slow-paced and relaxed. - Opportunity to work on high-impact financial software. Quite useful if you want to get into a trading firm later on.

Cons

- Limited skill growth capability (tools are severely locked down, etc) - Work life balance can be shaky sometimes since systems fail after 5pm, weekend, etc. - Documentation is terribly organized. - Not enough focus on engineering culture. Overall probably not the best place to stick around if you like exploring new skills, building from the ground up, taking ownership etc.
