Pros

- Pay FS/ business people super well like this is an investment bank - Great insurance - Smart and good working level colleagues - Good stepping stone - You will love it if you want to work in an old German bank environment - Great place to work if you can manage upward well

Cons

- No innovation - Bad management, especially the CEO who is not receptive to feedback and talks to employees like a school teacher. Old boys club as in the other reviews. - Openly asked for positive rating in Glassdoor to push down the negative ones; CEO does not care or encourage the company to build a transparent and good culture - Forever changing priorities and focus as a few important people made decisions based on their gut feelings or requests instead of proper data analysis - Customer thinking is a myth - Capable people who are able to execute all leaving/ have already left

Pros

Like other posts, 1) Good benefits and amazing insurance 2) State-of-the-art tech stack where you will pick up interesting stuff that other places wont usually use 3) Smart colleagues (if they are not braggers) who actually do their work in an amazing fashion

Cons

1) Clueless management who is oblivious to who does the work and who is just plain bragging about non-existential work or "accomplishments" 2) Hired a ton of undeserving unqualified engineers into the ranks of bitmex, which didnt happen in the past, when the senior management decided hiring targets was the way to go. These are the people that brag about their non-existential "accomplishments" where they have done nothing much really of note to value add to the company 3) As with above points, no surprise, company performance has been declining rapidly and there's no sense of accountability and realisation within the senior management ranks that its a huge issue
