      Pros

      TMG is unique in the industry for how quickly young traders are developed and given room to take and manage risk themselves. While you of course work closely with your team, you are given the opportunity to start driving decision making within your first few months on the job. The comp/bonus structure provides a path to rapid growth in earnings for top performers, as opposed to firms with much flatter structures where your upside is limited. A unique perk is all employees getting exposure to the firm’s performance, instead of having comp be driven mostly by individual or desk performance. This is rare for a firm with as consistent a track record as TMG’s, and a sign of the commitment to developing young talent.

      Cons

      Depending on the role, you may have to work off-shift hours and the work can be demanding. Definitely not a great fit for someone who is reluctant to work hard. As for any trading role, the ability to take constructive criticism is a must, especially in an environment where you are given the opportunity to take risk very quickly. Employees are usually operating with a decent amount of autonomy, so if you need to be carefully managed and steered to perform best, probably not the best fit.

        Pros

        The company is willing to expend great energy towards mentorship and training in order to get new hires up to speed and on a path towards subject mastery. People are friendly and collaborative, and the strategies at the firm are intellectually rewarding. TMG has a very entrepreneurial culture, so the process of taking an idea for a new strategy from whiteboard to implementation can be relatively fast so long as your strategy is well thought out and data driven.

        Cons

        You will need to be able to face criticism in order to improve your thought process and decision making as a trader. Having thick skin and humility is essential for success, so if you do not operate well with consistent constructive feedback this may not be the role for you. The lean and entrepreneurial nature of the company may not suit your style if you prefer a more defined corporate structure.
