Pros
1. Optiver is relentless in its quest to be the best market maker in the world, all the while maintaining a commitment to better financial markets for everyone. 2. There is a strong culture for self-assessment and critique. Everyone is always pushing to be better. Overall, it's a very ambitious bunch of people. 3. Compensation is very attractive.
Cons
1. Although the compensation is extremely attractive, it is variable. That bothers some folks who would prefer to receive their compensation in a steady stream.
