Pros

- Everyone can (and does) make a noticeable impact - Growth potential - we have bi-weekly meetings to discuss what is and isn't going well, and the turnaround on feedback is thorough and thoughtful. There's clear mobility, and it seems very fair - There's a clear vision for the future and a good infrastructure for measuring impact of new strategies or trading new products - Knowledge is shared across the board, and management is very open about what they're planning for the company, what needs to be worked on across the company on a quarterly basis

Cons

- The work is challenging. There's a lot of work left to optimize the current operation. If you don't like working hard to learn and add value, this won't be a great place for you. - Benefits are good (great insurance, unlimited PTO, equity), but bonuses are definitely below industry standard. I know this is because the company is still young and has ambitions for rapid expansion

Pros

Consistent growth in PnL over the years, and a pretty clear vision for growth in the future. Organization is fairly flat. The CEO sits in the middle of the office, in one of the trading rows. Putting resources into adaptation of AI and other new technologies with effective results. Clear focus on improving company culture over past year with more benefits going to employees.

Cons

Still have a lot of room to catch up to the bigger firms - particularly with expansion into newer markets. A lot of the company's focus has been handling the hard problems first for sustainable PnL in the future rather than putting resources into underdeveloped markets. Perhaps the PnL would be higher if we took those bets as a company. This is not particularly unique for the industry, but there has been some turnover the past 2 years.

Pros

- New hires get meaningful ownership early and are able to contribute quickly. - Very smart, low-ego team that is supportive and focused on getting better. - CEO is highly engaged and close to the business. - Strong core business with expansion into new areas, so there’s a lot of opportunity.

Cons

- Fast-paced environment with high expectations, so it’s not for everyone. - You need to be proactive and comfortable figuring things out on your own. - Less structure than at larger or more established firms.
