Pros: Poker games are pretty cool

Cons: Bonus numbers are ok but nothing great compared to other prop trading firms

Pros: - Office view is excellent - Lunch every day is a great perk - Work events are always very good

Cons: Technology is very old, experienced workforce means resistant to change. Things I've seen - A single service account to manage every production service across the office - A crontab filled with 50+ schedules, changed using vim, not versioned - Comment "Why did I learn testing at university, I haven't written a single test here" - Near zero use of standard technology like containers - Deployments done by manual 'cp' binaries from dev to prod - No concepts of SLO's or basic SRE principles - Can't use the latest versions of VSCode because the development machines don't support it The Sydney office is far behind the US office in terms of technology. The US office is also behind relative to its American peers. There are some discussions on Reddit showcasing this. If you are a trader, SIG can be a great place to learn and you will be remunerated well. If you are a technologist, this is not the bleeding edge that you are led to believe it is.

Pros: Treats employees with respect, integrity

Cons: There are 1 or 2 egos in the office.
