Thoughts on Centiva Capital?

5-6Bn AUM fund that often gets mentioned online as a tier 2 platform (in the league of Walleye, Verition, Hudson Bay, etc.). However, really not that much info about them out there. Seems to be very quanty and almost entirely fixed income/macro focused. How good are they? What are returns like? Are pods there more RV focused or directional macro or a mix? Basically - is it a good enough fund where one can exit to become a PM/trader at a bigger fund or is the name not well known/respected enough?

Just bumping this - any info is great. Seen waaaaay more engagement on posts involving smaller (500M) funds.
