Pros
Casual environment, friendly people, a lot of the New Age Christian leadership stuff / life coaching if you are into that. Benefits are good as well
Cons
Literally the most inexperienced people in derivatives trading run this place and come up with all of the business direction. I can't tell you how many people are "head of" this or that and have literally never had a job before coming to this place. You mostly work with inexperienced kids who think they are amazing at trading or technology; they will generally not hire experienced people from higher-tier firms. There is also a good deal of manipulation that goes on due to the mostly 20 something staff from upper management, or "The Leadership Team" as they refer to themselves. There is a ton of nepotism - I can't tell you how many people who work there have a job - even a trading job - because they are "Church Friends" with two of the owners. Looking busy, staying late, and talking about what a hard worker you are is championed over intelligence and being truly good at what you do.
