An amazing company to work for.

Business Outlook

Pros

Meritocratic company. Direct communication with management, a place where you start doing the job you want first, then you can actually get that job if you do well enough. Fair compensation, good benefits.

Cons

Cons are the same that exist in every single big company, i.e., flexibility is not the same as you have in a smaller company, and decisions may take some time to be taken.

Business Outlook

Pros

The company really cares with its employees and really make us feel it.

Cons

Depending of the manager, the metrics and reults are not really clear. The bonus could motivate us more than it is. Sales team receives 2x of other areas, what is not necessary fair since both areas match the targets.

Good benefits, despite of salary

Financial sales and analytics

Recommend

Business Outlook

Pros

Continuous training, opportunity to travel, good HR benefits, volunteering program, most of the time you can leave the office on time, pantry

Cons

For the analytics team, the biggest con is micromanagement. Most of the time you can´t leave your desk while working, working hours are very controlled, you cannot be a minute late. Managers do not accept opinions from the employees. Managers do not have a strong background in financial markets.
