Good compensation and nice coworkers. Work can be interesting depending on teams.
No transparency from management. Slow growth. Wlb can be bad depending on teams
Joined Meta back in June as a new grad and I already rejected 2sig offer awhile back. I was told that career progression and tech stack is better at Meta. Did I make a mistake? 🥲 It’s hard to put in my best work with the current sentiment. Two Sigma: 300k Meta: 250k (stock dropping so I’m not sur...Read more

Tier 0: Five Rings, HRT, Jane Street, Jump Trading Tier 0.5: Citadel, DE Shaw, Netflix Tier 1: Facebook, Two Sigma, Snap, Stripe, Pi...Read more
I am New Grad and got offers from these 2 companies. In terms on compensation I think there is much more room at Two Sigma (I heard they can have crazy bonuses even 100% base, actually any insight on that is welcomed, and much feaster raises, promotions). My opinion: Although it is something totall...Read more

Hey all. Does anybody know long does it takes for Two Sigma to respond to a job application? I applied to 2 roles relatively recently that I thought I was a great fit for, but my applications have been “under consideration” or in “resume review” for months now. Also, if somebody was willing to refer...Read more
