For technologists, a good place to learn about finance and trading, but not technology
Good in-house training on finance, markets, etc. You can learn a lot as a technologist. Good pay and bonus if you are working in a profitable part of the company.
Technology is deep but very narrow and old-school.
Very little open source.
Very little collaboration.
The tech staff is operated a bit as a fiefdom, based on loyalty and hours worked.
Bring in more modern development practices and tools.

The overall approach was mostly a "medium binary search" over the solution space. It's definitely doable. Try to reach for the optimal solution, otherwise test cases will fail. It was a pleasant experience. Good luck to everybody.
