Trainee in Sydney Australia

Good Learning Experience
A market making company relying only on your performance compared to your peers to evaluate you.Steep learning curveMulti-cultural office
Systems Engineer in Sydney NSW
on 27 March 2022
Harsh, competitive, interesting, flawed.
The highly politicised management and questionable competitiveness serve as a distraction to the interesting technology and intelligent staff. There's a good opportunity for exposure to interesting technologies and their real world implementations. The pay and perks almost or mostly make up for the floundering of management.
Software Engineer in Sydney

Good place to work
Lots of smart, high energy people. Very focused on results which is good if you like that. (or bad if you don't). Management is very good. Good extras.

Great work culture and smart colleagues
Dutch company with 30+ years in the market making industry. Stable with great compensation and benefits. Very performance driven team and good people culture.
Developer in Sydney NSW
on 2 October 2020
Great Technologists - Terrible HR / IV process
Super Arrogant Talent Acquisition team - a nightmare to deal with and paint the wrong picture of the role and team. Once you are in its good, but the most unpleasant experience is having to deal with the egotistical morons in the Talent Acquisition team who don't understand most of the words that they say!
