Pros: By far some of the smartest people I've ever worked with. The culture of Two Sigma really promotes collaboration, and respect in the workplace is highly emphasized.
Cons: Teams are incredibly lean and, depending on the department, understaffed. This creates a heavy support burden at times. Certain departments also carry a scary amount of technical debt.
