TransMarket Group Reviews

Cons

There aren't really any cons.

Cons

The firm's either great or awful, depending on which team you end up on. The lucky people who joined early are now managers of the desks, some are great while others have no clue about management, barely shows up to work, and only promote those with glib tongues. The firm also hires high numbers of internationals in need of EB5 and significantly under pay them knowing they are less likely to leave. Very low base salaries compared to the industry. Bonuses are good for those who joined the firm early, but any later joiners are churned after they burn out on overnight shifts. Also, the firm has catered meals so employees work longer, and "unlimited vacation policy" so everyone feels pressured to take none.

Cons

None that I can think of.

Cons

Almost no women are employed here. 90% men. Lots of people drink on the job. They dress very casual for an office environment, like they are at home doing laundry. They are disorganized and gossipy, but that is most likely because most employees are recent graduates with no prior professional experience or immigrants trying to stay in the country on work visas. These people have no sense of urgency, and then when things aren’t completed “on time” they blame others and pass the buck. They have high employee turn-over. I guess if you want to spend your life staring at a computer all day and drinking, this could be the job for you. If you’re a professional and seek a professional work environment, this place is not for you. Very immature, lack of standard employee policy and training. Poor internal communications. They have a very depressing work culture overall. No one seems happy at this company.

Cons

- Monthly expenses above market

Cons

none I can think of

Cons

If you are a STL (Algo Trader) be prepared for sub par payout and to be out compensated by "RV" traders. RV traders are the jock old school type of traders who actually just turn on the trade and do nothing else. Also you only get paid 50% of your bonus. I think this is the case for everyone at transmarket.

If you are a competent programmer, I would never come here of you can avoid it. Seriously. You'll be out earned by all of your classmates who went to real trading firms.

Cons

not a lot of guidance sometimes

Cons

If you're interested in job titles, this is not the place for you. TransMarket Group doesn't have the same name recognition as a major investment bank. Management doesn't spend money on expensive office space (would rather allocate the money to employees in year end bonuses).

Cons
