I'm coming from Google and wondering which trading company has better work life balance? yoe: 6 TC: 375 #optiver #jumptrading
Optiver is 8-5/6 (mostly closer to 5) if you are on a front office team. I have friends at jump and its not that different, at least anecdotally. You'll have to work hard, long, and/or smart at either place if you want money. There isn't any free lunch wrt wlb vs pay. Also like all comparisons, it varies greatly based on the team and individual. For example on average, a back office role might have better WLB, but maybe slightly less comp.
Whats your offer??
