L6 SRE Manager with 10 year career of SWE Management experience prior to Google and 16 total years of experience, currently 600k TC What are current comp packages at Citadel looking like for an equivalent role? Deciding whether I should answer their recruiter’s cold email or not PS: worth mentioning that despite my few years at Google, I’ve kept up and worked with the latest tech stacks outside, and even during my time as a manager (and Director) pre-Google I still committed 50% of my time to engineering new features, fixing bugs, and code reviews
My impression with HFTs is that I almost never see EM job postings and they likely promote internally into those roles. They generally do not grow very quickly so they can afford to take their time to vet EMs properly. Wish Google did the same 😂
Not sure about the HF but in CitSec it is exceptionally rare for us to hire someone directly into a management role in the SRE org. There is just way too much domain specific knowledge you need. We generally promote from within (albeit sometimes very quickly). Knowing the latest tech stack will be completely useless to you at Citadel. The SRE manager for our org is still online before market open every day helping to fight fires. You can't do that without knowing a lot about how the system works. I would ask for clarity from the recruiter about what your role would be.
Sounds like a miserable job.
Indeed it is. SRE is by far the worst job at Citadel. But I'm pretty sure it pays way more than any other similar role elsewhere.
Can they make 1million?

You should! I'm pretty sure you can make more than 1M with citadel
Thanks I bet as well but looking for some concrete data points to back up that assumption. Data on salaries for them seems to be lacking for managers and higher levels
