There are great benefits such as a tasty cooked lunch every day, as many snacks as you want, a well equipped gym as part of the office and regular personal touches to make you feel valued.
Working with very smart and driven people makes it easier to improve your skills.
There is great pay but also reasonable hours that allow you to have a life outside work.
The work day is quite intense which makes it hard to catch up on continuous learning. It's shown by the tech stack being a little dated. Everyone there is open to modernizing things where there is benefit but you most probably can't start with untested toy libraries which would help make you marketable outside the company. It's not exactly a bad thing though because you are writing production code that is heavily optimized and used by users instead of switching frameworks every 6 months.
Pretty decent. The interview itself isn't that difficult, I almost full scored it but I still didn't manage to get in. Perhaps it is because of international student restriction?
First step is a tech async interview: 2 LeetCode hard questions in 90 minutes. Didn't get past this point even though I submitted both of the questions correctly Didn't get past this point even though I submitted both of the questions correctly
The process took a long time and was inefficient. After the final round of interviews, the recruiter simply ghosted the candidate. It is very bad compared to interviews with other trading firms.
