      Pros

      + healthy atmosphere + open door policy + emphasis on clean, simple solutions to complex problems + excellent work life balance + a quorum of highly intelligent focused people in IT and trading

      Cons

      - some weaker middle management historically. This has now largely been rectified - aggressively high standards have left some teams stretched thin on staff

      Pros

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

      Cons

      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
