Investment Bank’s trading desks: electronic S&T vs. Facilitation/Risk
Would you be able to thoroughly compare working for a sales&trading products desk (think electronic trading) vs. working for a facilitation/risk/“prop” desk at a BB?
It would be interesting to cover expectations, salary, job security, career growth, learning opportunities (technical skills - markets microstructure, financial products, execution protocols, order’s management - and interpersonal skills), transferability of such skills in other roles/industries and exit opportunities on a detailed level.
It would be awesome if anyone could share his/her own personal experience switching from one desk to another and what changed from both a personal and professional perspective.
I would love to keep this post open and appreciate if you could share anything that you deem relevant to the topic. I think this hasn’t been covered in a detailed level in previous threads.
Thank you !
