Pros

Good level of responsibility given for graduate role. Legal team is small which is good in terms of experience and learning

Cons

Limited progression for grads, tedious repetitive work, the company is chaotically run, extremely high turn over, does not value nor respect employees. Long hours, no time in lieu or overtime. The work sometimes difficult from an moral standpoint.

Waste of good software

Pros

None Please note the reviews on the leadership development program are a sham. Only recent graduates can get in because they are cheap and inexperienced. They don't know what a good corporate culture is so they don't know they are being taken advantage of. Feel bad for the people in that program. You can do better!

Cons

Too many to list. -No trust from the top -not running a business but like a private equity fund: buy cut milk for cash - culture is cut throat, depressing for above mentioned reasons

Pros

There are some smart workers and company events are not bad. If you are in a grad program you might like it for a little while

Cons

This is just a new page to hide the original Glassdoor page (ION Trading) but it’s the same company. It’s Very obvious that grads run the company and they are the only employees who have any klout with the CEO/execs. Any positive reviews are probably written by them. Getting employees to work for as little pay as possible is what the company is about. Salaries are low and raises are barely given out to even those who work the hardest. The CEO is not a good man. Business people can care about money and their employees too but this man does not. Management does not care or listen. They care more about useless data than actually making the company less terrible. You are promised a bonus but it’s very unlikely that you will get one and if you do you might as well have not gotten one at all. Benefits are not great and some people have a 401k match and some don’t. Some are trying to boost morale but it’s hard when tons of employees are fired on New Years Day. People do not write reviews because they are bored it is just to warn good people. You can do better
