Pros: Endless perks- free food, auto mechanic, etc. No TPS reports. No one looking over your shoulder telling you how to code - use all the recursion and functional programming you want. No one complains about wearing earphones. Opportunity to rise in pay and prestige without going into management. Pay is way better than other places in the area...

Cons: ...but way worse than other companies in the industry. Company is run by traders, not programmers, which is not optimal for the career of a programmer. Hard to concentrate on coding on the trading floor. No say in what projects your placed on. Different departments vary wildly in culture- your experience may vary.

Pros: Free lunch, friendly people, and good tech, lots of benefits

Cons: Some teams feel a little more slapdash and less organized than they should be.

Pros: The company gives lunch, but the good thing ends right there.

Cons: It does not give good money.
