It would be nice to get a perspective from someone in the industry as opposed to all these students who've made up their minds while still in school , so I'd appreciate if you did that.

 

What is the point of these rankings? Prestige means nothing with these companies and it's going to be almost completely speculation anyways. You can only dig up financials for KCG, Flow and Virtu since they're listed, and anything else will just be Optiver/IMC releasing their record years if they have them.

There's too many variables to consider to rank them against each other as well. Rank Jump vs. Jane Street vs. KCG vs. Five Rings for me please.

 

For a volatile environment like this and last year, some shops made a shit load, some shops almost blew up. You would never know which shop made how much unless you have some insider information. It's VERY dangerous to pursue a career(especially for prop shops) based on some bs posts from Glassdoor/WSO, selectivity, or prestige. This ain't banking guys.
