Good comp but suffering from shrinkage

Software engineer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Good compensation compared to average software engineering jobs in London. Comfortable work-life balance. Some interesting projects going on.

Cons

The company aimed to grow in size till a few years ago but now it looks like it is aiming to shrink down to some extent, and thus, we now have occasional layoffs. It also has too many middle managers and this sometimes drives them towards useless office politics.

Mind the gap

Senior software engineer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

A lot of clever engineers and few decent managers to work with. The company is very ambitious and there is an opportunity to get involved with many different areas. Very strong research and actual end-to-end quant firm.

Cons

Engineering leadership is in a really bad shape. In the past few years, there's been steady influx of politicians from some horrific shops like Facebook or Credit Swiss and they are prioritizing their personal agendas at the expense of what actually needs to be done. Career progression is severely limited and the environment is mostly toxic although that depends on the area that you work in.
