For the software developer, it offers a chance to work on a large-scale, distributed system used by 300,000+ premium clients to help them make decisions within the financial markets.
This means solving problems of scalability and robustness on a scale which relatively few other companies, other than the ones already mentioned, may have to deal with.
The work environment is friendly and open, and the company is constantly working to refresh its technologies in order to advance its products.

Having to work with or around some of this code may put off some developers.
