Pros

Jump is a good HFT firm if you want to be in that business. WFH has been good and perks are all standard everywhere.

Cons

The work is dull and meaningless. The firm has grown so big so fast that nobody seems to have an idea how they will be trained or what they will work on. It's a bee hive of activity but no direction. All the teams are competing with each other which also lends to strange dynamics.

Pros

Great amenities onsite, close to transit.

Cons

Toxic work environment consisting of unprofessional behavior of talking badly about current and former employees by management. Historically, this company drops people left and right regardless of the amount of time they have been there.
