Pros

Good for starters, you don't need a financial market background to be employed. The company provides necessary training and a good bonus for a good job.

Cons

Technical debt slows down the innovation cycle. You need to be very creative to arrange some time for innovation. This is due to a lack of system architects and quality assurance.

Advice to Management

The appraisal scheme is a bit infantile. For example, the closer to a trader's actual trading activity, the higher the bonus.
