During coffee chats, interviews, etc. I would always hear senior folks say that one should never underestimate politics on the trading floor. I've also heard that people move up/get pushed out due to politics all the time.
How would one navigate the politics on the trading floor? especially as a junior employee.
Curious to hear whether anyone has any stories about trading floor politics to tell.
