Whenever I'm on Blind nobody ever mentions Millennium. We barely have a Blind presence. I think our pay is good, we haven't laid people off and our AUM keeps growing. Why is it that all other finance shops get more mentions than MLP? TC: 300K #finance
Recruiting strategy is different. JS, HRT, Citadel type places rely heavily on getting in early career/new grad talent and spend lots of time shilling online and building up a reputation as 'elite' places to work. (Investment banks work the same way, but not really on the tech side.) As I understand it Millennium mostly hires experienced candidates, the best of which often care less about that sort of thing.

Having interviewed several Millennium people for positions here, and having worked with a few, I can tell you my conception of the firm: - Very bad WLB - Toxic leadership in tech - Very good but not amazing comp potential - Tech stack and projects not especially exciting/innovative Probably depends on the team, and the above almost certainly suffers from some degree of selection bias. This is from people that either wanted to leave or had left.

Pod shop - as a result your performance, comp, and job security are determined by your PM
I meant for people on the tech side of the firm. There's like 1k people here.
Yeah I’m familiar - headlines don’t make that distinction though which influences how many will feel
