Nice place to work and could be a career changer, but long, long hours.

Server storage engineer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Compensation, fringe benefits, culture that allows for movement around the enterprise. Company values are amazing and is a reflection of Mike's values. The company is working hard to pivot as more automation is changing the finance industry.

Cons

Hours can be brutal. 9hr shifts for most, and 10hrs for many others. Collaborative work spaces are very distracting. If your not a programmer, your technical career is limited.

Strong culture - great place for technologists

Senior engineering manager

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

True technology-focused company, great mobility opportunities, talented engineering workforce, pantry, philanthropy and benefits.

Cons

There are many lifers who have been here a very long time and for whom this was their first job. Unfortunately the lack of external experience and leadership tends to hinder out-of-the-box innovation.

Terrible Remuneration

Business Outlook

Pros

Free salads. Free fancy salads actually. You quickly get over it though when you realise you cannot afford to buy true salads yourself if you wanted to

Cons

Micro management and inexperienced and generally unprofessional management team. Detached from reality. Terribly uninspiring remuneration offered to qualified and experienced employees
