How is SIG's reputation for HFT and SWE? What is typically the compensation for SWE? How is the technical bar compared to Bloomberg, Tech companies like Google / Meta / Amazon, or other HFT / Hedge funds like (HRT, Citadel, IMC Trading, Point72)? And does it generally pay more than or less than some of these companies?
mid
I love it. Honestly if working at SIG is rated with 3.8 then I no longer understand what 5.0 looks like. WLB is very good, comp is very good, and projects are very interesting and motivating.
Comp is very good for SWE or only QR, QT?
SWE
last time I interviewed there, interview was easy (no retarded LC style q's but real life problems). But pay was quite less I think 150k-200k something. Reason the recruiter said is because its in LCol
is comp higher in the nyc office?
Yes comp is substantially higher at NYC office for teams that can work there compared to their Bala counterparts. But I wouldn't switch from Bala to NYC. I doubt you'd get the same difference versus what you'd get if you directly applied to NYC
