      Mixed bag - Could do better - Risk Management Optiver Employee Review

      Risk management

      CEO approval
      Business outlook

      Pros

      * Good food * Good perks * Interesting work * Good remuneration

      Cons

      * Management standards have slipped over the years * Poor review system with no recourse process. * Too much reliance on promoting senior traders to corporate senior management when they clearly aren't qualified or suitable. * You will know when your time is up at the company. Assessment score will reflect. * Unless it impacts the bottom line or has reputational/compliance risk - reports/assessments will only be paid lip service to.

      Good compensation, collaborative environment. Company also seems to aim to be at forefront of new tech such as AI

      When HR mgmt is on record stating things like the company shouldn’t hire females anymore, it really makes you wonder how they make decisions on who should fill management positions
