Pros: Good benefits, mature stack, pleasant office environment, good teams with capable engineers

Cons: I was hit by layoff culture, which had made it harder to deliver long-term projects, and product management quality can vary wildly.

Pros: The place has a nice atmosphere and work environment.

Cons: Some people can be hard to communicate with.

Pros: - Free food, drinks, etc - A lot of company social events - Generally most people are nice and the quants are really smart - Excellent WLB ( even compared to rest and vest tech places like Salesforce, Adobe, Google etc.) - Hybrid office culture, which isn't typical at most quant funds. This however may change

Cons: - Unless you're a quant the comp doesn't compare to the tier 1 or even some tier 2 funds - IaC implementation is pretty bad, process in deploying applications is also bad but may get better - Lot of internal politics between teams. Don't want to stereotype but I see this more and more as joiners are coming over from big banks and bringing that "banking engineering culture" over - Very 2000's-ish top down engineering culture with enterprise architects calling all the shots for design decisions vs a committee of principal engineers at big tech. - A LOT of middle managers. As other reviews have noted some managers have like 3 direct reports and I have seen some M2 managers who have just one M1 manager who again have like 3-4 direct reports....
