Not impressed... at best - Anonymous employee Quantlab Employee Review

- Intellectual property not great, personally I don't feel they are up-to-par with their competitors; I would go as far as to say that some of the IP is even based on severe misconceptions of both technology and statistics - No opportunity for upward movement whatsoever, and a lot of management is really average (to say the least) compared to the rest of their team, and that makes the internal dynamics weird - Higher management is literally paranoid regarding the said 'IP' and that makes it very hard to move to another company. That's extremely dangerous for any future career opportunity and I would warn people looking forward to a growing career to think twice before signing up with them - Some 'managers' are overly self-confident (even somewhat obnoxious?), and therefore don't really seem to worry about the competition. I found that to be very scary at times. The pool of talent is limited and not 'renewed' - You won't get opportunities to work on interesting projects if you're not 'in' the in crowd - and it is unfortunately not clear how to get 'in' Overall, not really bad, but in my personal case, I have to say that working here was the worst move of my career. Definitely not a 'tech' company as they claim it...
