Pluspunten

Free lunches that usually taste good. Probably still a great place to work as a trader. Potentially a good stepping stone to other HFTs.

Minpunten

Used to be great, but then the old management was replaced by bean counters that don't value technology. To cut IT costs, instead of honest redundancies, they gave artificially low performance reviews to developers en masse to force people out. An awful place to work as a developer now because it's really hard to get recognition or promotion. Used to be BRW's Number 1 Place To Work in Australia (2013), now not even in the top 50.
