Pros
Generally non demanding job - no overtime, no Saturdays, 5pm or earlier finish time. Salaries are great for traders. Junior traders 65k+, Traders 140k+, Trading Managers 200k+. Many staff have been working for 10 years + Quite a few nice and decent people working here Central location for transport, food etc.
Cons
Support staff (traders assistants, shipping, accounts) have quite a dull job to do, mostly repetitive tasks (invoice, receipts, contracts, data entry, customer and supplier emails). Support staff salaries are reasonable ranging from $45k - $85k, however these do pale in comparison to traders, particularly considering there is basically no prospect of promotion to being a trader. Some trading desks are toxic. Essentially if you bring money in, you can get away with whatever you want without consequence and hence bullying and toxic culture has become the norm. This really falls back on weak upper management. The job itself is not particularly fufilling, it's more about sitting in an office and running through the motions.However the decent paycheck keeps most people here. Politics and favouritism are very apparent Software is antiquated and needs an overhaul.
