Vantaggi

Paid lunch and decent offices

Svantaggi

Thank. You. Squarepoint. For perfectly illustrating how NOT to treat an employee. It's because of you I have realized my true worth, not only as an employee but also as an individual. I must credit particular members of senior management and give a special shout out to my line manager, for all of the creative ways in which you found to bully, belittle and oppress not only me, but some of my other bright and talented (now ex) colleagues. In my experience, Squarepoint really champion egotistic and obnoxious personalities, so if those are qualities you aspire to possess, this firm is the perfect place for you to thrive. Note that being egotistical and obnoxious from home is out of the question though, following SP's sudden enforcement during the second covid lockdown, in which senior management suddenly 'decided' that they were exempt from the mandatory WFH ruling by the UK government, which still stands today. Why start a cult when you can start a company, right Squarepoint....?

Vantaggi

Some people are nice and collaborative

Svantaggi

The firm is run by a group of all-French "partners" milking on their success in stat arb. The organization is a strict hierarchy, where partners are nobleman and everyone else peasants. There is no transparency or open communication. No performance review. Personnel decisions are made behind doors and people are fired casually and frequently, The worst is for human traders, who are constantly squeezed for their IP and then fired once replaced by code. Better for French quants under the correct political umbrella. Do not believe in their recruiting lies about wanting to grow and diversify; the reality is that most partners are extremely insecure, arrogant and hostile to change. If you are a junior person, there is no upward mobility (serious French bureaucracy); if you are a senior person, you will report to quants who do not understand business, do not care and do not trust you.
