I got an offer for 120K GBP + 40K GBP bonus in London from a hedge fund doing some C++ and Python. Is that good enough? What is the market for these positions in London at the moment? TC: 130K GBP YOE: 10+ Cheers
Bloomberg?
Obviously I am not going to name one
Why not?
Why want to know?

Have you tried Citadel? It offers significantly more in London from my experience. 160 TC for 10yoe seems low I think
Tried it a year ago, but was not good at Leetcode yet, so that did not go well back then
Yep, I suggest you at least try it -- they will beat 120+40 easily especially given 10yoe you claimed. What is your highest education level?
So for a regular hedge fund I should have been demanding 200K at least?
Bonus is low, and probably indicative that they do not value developers too highly. Or is this guaranteed min bonus? Bonuses at good HF's should be around 1x your base.
Guaranteed min bonus it is.
This is fine but is mid office. London is all about getting close to the money.
