Received an offer from citadel. Offered - 300k Worth leaving apple? Half TC here Specially concerned because of the glassdoor reviews about frequent firings and terrible culture.
Yes
Half the earnings and terrible reviews and you need help answering this question? What am I missing
Which location? Bay Area? Chicago New York? I guess worth considering cost of living
Choice between Chicago and NY

Why not? IT firings are rare, and even rarer at Citadel Securities. Culture is improving as well; many of us enjoy the newly opened employee space on the 37th floor at Chicago.
Securities or the hedge fund?
Hedge Fund
Hedge fund is going to be very different than securities. It’s legitimately a different firm. Also will depend on what desk specifically you join. Also 300k buys a totally different standard of living in Chicago compared to 150 in NY or SF. Downside is if you want to switch back to pure tech your options in Chicago are very limited and you will probably have to relo again
Frequent turnover and dismissal seem way more common on the hedge fund side.
