Friendly work environment Very collaborative Successful employees treated well - opportunity for increasing responsibility Co-workers are respectful of others opinions Differing opinions are encouraged

Cons

Low turnover in upper ranks - since successful employees are treated well, little people at the top leave. It creates logjams for successful employess in lower levels.

Pros

- Friendly working environment. - Slow-paced and relaxed. - Opportunity to work on high-impact financial software. Quite useful if you want to get into a trading firm later on.

Cons

- Limited skill growth capability (tools are severely locked down, etc) - Work life balance can be shaky sometimes since systems fail after 5pm, weekend, etc. - Documentation is terribly organized. - Not enough focus on engineering culture. Overall probably not the best place to stick around if you like exploring new skills, building from the ground up, taking ownership etc.
