Pros

- casual attire - friendly co workers

Cons

- no transparency from management. They will say anything to applease employees. - they lack understanding of markets. They actually have no clue about market making and prop trading. - they will say anything to hire people, not very honest on the real situation at the firm. - compensation is heavily skewed to management and the few in their inner circle.
