Pros

The team has very knowledgeable developers. It is a well-organised team with documentation and progress tracking.

There are good progression options.

Cons

Zero racial diversity and almost no women on the quant/dev side. Many unexpected layoffs, leading to many re-orgs and team shuffling. No work-life balance (although my manager was among the better ones about this). Poor compensation. Upper management mostly speaks French, and they often cannot express requirements in English.
